MRI imaging characteristics of brainstem and midbrain aqueduct in patients with iNPH by Kui Xiao, Liangxue Zhou, Xielin Tang, Shenghua Liu, Ziang Deng, Feilong Yang

“…Compared to healthy individuals, iNPH patients exhibited significant dilation of the mesencephalic aqueduct diameter, a reduced aqueduct angle, and a decrease in the sagittal plane area of the brainstem, with the most pronounced reduction in the midbrain region. Notably, the CSF spaces surrounding the brainstem were dilated, resulting in the prepontine cistern presenting a “hammer-like” shape on the sagittal plane. …”
