Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
Publication date: April 2016 Source:Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, Volume 37, Issue 2 Author(s): William G. Bradley Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a syndrome found in the elderly, which is characterized by ventriculomegaly and deep white matter ischemia (DWMI) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the clinical triad of gait disturbance, dementia, and urinary incontinence. NPH has been estimated to account for up to 10% of cases of dementia and is significant because it is treatable by ventriculoperitoneal shunting. Patients with a known cause of chronic communicating hydrocephalus, that is, meningitis or ...

Bradley Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) is a syndrome found in the elderly which is characterized by ventriculomegaly and deep white matter ischemia (DWMI) on MRI and the clinical triad of gait disturbance, dementia and urinary incontinence. NPH has been estimated to account for up to 10% of cases of dementia and is significant because it is treatable by ventriculoperitoneal shunting (VPS).
