متن کاملEvaluation of high-resolution CT and MR cisternography in the diagnosis of cerebrospinal fluid fistula.
PURPOSE We undertook this study to determine the accuracy of MR cisternography and plain high-resolution CT as a noninvasive alternative to CT cisternography in the diagnosis of CSF fistula in patients with clinically suspected CSF rhinorrhea. METHODS Forty-five consecutive patients with clinically suspected CSF rhinorrhea were examined prospectively for CSF fistula with MR cisternography and...
