In this retrospective study, the phase-contrast MR imaging of 185 patients with suspected chronic adult hydrocephalus was evaluated using the CSF Flow software package. Decision-making for shunt placement was performed in this cohort on the basis of clinical assessment alone without the availability of quantitative phase-contrast MRI results. The authors evaluated the response to lumbar puncture or lumbar drainage and shunt surgery using quantitative tests such as the Tinetti Test, the Timed Up and Go, and the Mini-Mental State Examination and qualitative measures of gait, urinary, and cognitive symptom improvement before and after lumbar puncture/lumbar drainage and shunt surgery. This study suggests that the results of phase-contrast MR imaging through the cerebral aqueduct alone should not be used to select patients for diagnostic or therapeutic CSF diversion.

- EDITOR'S CHOICEAdult BrainOpen AccessMRI Evidence of Altered Callosal Sodium in Mild Traumatic Brain InjuryH. Grover, Y. Qian, F.E. Boada, K. Lakshmanan, S. Flanagan and Y.W. LuiAmerican Journal of Neuroradiology December 2018, 39 (12) 2200-2204; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A5903
Eleven patients with a history of mild traumatic brain injury and 10 age- and sex-matched controls underwent sodium MR imaging using a 3T scanner. Higher total sodium concentration in the genu and lower total sodium concentration in the splenium was seen in patients with mild traumatic brain injury compared with controls. The ratio of genu total sodium concentration to splenium total sodium concentration was also higher in patients with mild traumatic brain injury. The total sodium concentration appears to be altered beyond the immediate postinjury phase, and further work is needed to understand the relationship to persistent symptoms and outcome.
