DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhac341
Abstract: Pediatric hydrocephalus, the leading reason for brain surgery in children, is characterized by enlargement of the cerebral ventricles classically attributed to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) overaccumulation. Neurosurgical shunting to reduce CSF volume is the default treatment… read more here.

DOI: 10.1159/000546994
Abstract: Abstract Introduction: Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is a well-established neurosurgical procedure. Concurrently, the Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy Success Score (ETVSS) is a recognized validation tool commonly used to prognosticate the efficacy of this intervention. The main… read more here.

DOI: 10.3171/2019.9.focus19619
Abstract: OBJECTIVE While conventional imaging can readily identify ventricular enlargement in hydrocephalus, structural changes that underlie microscopic tissue injury might be more difficult to capture. MRI-based diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) uses properties of water motion to… read more here.
