- Perspectives from the Inaugural “Spinal CSF Leak: Bridging the Gap” Conference: A Convergence of Clinical and Patient Expertise
The “Spinal CSF Leak: Bridging the Gap” Conference highlighted collective insights from a diverse cohort of clinicians, researchers, and patients. This manuscript discusses the clinical, diagnostic, and treatment challenges of spinal CSF leak, concluding that a collaborative, multidisciplinary care team needs to provide a standardized-yet-flexible diagnostic protocol to address the variability in clinical presentations and often-subtle radiographic findings.
- Comparison of a Whole-Brain Contrast-Enhanced 3D TSE T1WI versus Orbits Contrast-Enhanced 2D Coronal T1WI at 3T MRI for the Detection of Optic Nerve Enhancement in Patients with Acute Loss of Visual Acuity
This retrospective, single-center study of 1023 patients presenting with acute loss of vision compared orbits contrast-enhanced 2D coronal T1WI with a whole-brain contrast-enhanced 3D TSE T1WI at 3T for the detection of optic nerve enhancement. The latter (WBCE-3D T1WI) demonstrated higher sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing optic neuritis, particularly in cases involving the canalicular segments.
