Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) T2-weighted MR image of the entire spine for the cynomolgus monkey analyzed. Axial location and slice orientation (solid lines) of the phase-contrast MRI scans obtained in the study. Slice axial distance from foramen magnum indicated by dotted lines. (b) The CSF flow rate based on in vivo PCMRI measurement at FM, C2-C3, T4-T5, T10-T11, and L2-L3. (c) Sagittal view of the SAS segmentation based on T2-weighted MRI.
Article Snippet: CSF flow rate waveform shape and magnitude was similar from ∼125 mm to the SAS termination.
Techniques: In Vivo
