Abstract: Purpose To recommend a new simple and explicit index termed the anteroposterior diameter of the lateral ventricle index (ALVI) for assessing brain ventricular size in neuroimaging and to compare Evans index (EI) between idiopathic normal… read more here.

Abstract: OBJECTIVEExternal ventricular drain (EVD) insertion is one of the most common emergency neurosurgical procedures. EVDs are traditionally inserted freehand (FH) in an emergency setting, but often result in suboptimal positioning. Image-guided surgery (IGS) is selectively… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2021.783092
Abstract: With an ever-growing aging population, the prevalence of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is increasing. Clinical symptoms of NPH include cognitive impairment, gait disturbance, and urinary incontinence. Surgery can improve symptoms, which leads to the disease's… read more here.
