Imaging of cerebrospinal fluid leaks
Abstract
The present article provides an overview of epidemiology, clinical signs and symptoms, imaging techniques and specific imaging findings in cerebrospinal fluid leaks. Imaging protocols are supplemented with practical hints for invasive techniques. Emphasis is on the full scope of imaging findings in traumatic and nontraumatic cranial and spinal leaks.
