Usefulness of intravoxel incoherent motion MRI for visualizing slow cerebrospinal fluid motion

Abstract Background In the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics, the pulsations of cerebral arteries and brain is considered the main driving force for the reciprocating bidirectional CSF movements. However, measuring these complex CSF movements on conventional flow-related MRI methods is difficult. W...
