RISVentricle Equilibrium Position in Healthy and Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus Brains Using an Analytical Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The driving force that causes enlargement of the ventricles remains unclear in case of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). Both healthy and NPH brain conditions are characterized by a low ...
Syringomyelia Hydrodynamics: An In Vitro Study Based on In Vivo Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A simplified in vitro model of the spinal canal, based on in vivo magnetic resonance imaging, was used to examine the hydrodynamics of the human spinal cord and subarachnoid space with ...
Spinal Subarachnoid Space Pressure Measurements in an In Vitro Spinal Stenosis Model: Implications on Syringomyelia Theories
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Full explanation for the pathogenesis of syringomyelia (SM), a neuropathology characterized by the formation of a cystic cavity (syrinx) in the spinal cord (SC), has not yet been provided. It ...
