Human cranial CSF volumes measured by MRI: sex and age influences

Accurate measurements of CSF volumes would assist in the diagnosis of several important
neurological conditions. Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) we have devised a
method to measure both total intracranial CSF volume and ventricular volume. This initial
study, in normal humans, provides an answer to two longstanding questions: first, do these
volumes differ between the sexes; second, do both total and ventricular CSF volumes
increase with normal aging? We found that the total cranial CSF volume and skull size of …
