Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension is Associated with a Higher Burden of Visible Cerebral Perivascular Spaces: The Glymphatic Connection

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:

Research suggests a connection between idiopathic intracranial hypertension and the cerebral glymphatic system. We hypothesized that visible dilated perivascular spaces, possible glymphatic pathways, would be more prevalent in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension. This prevalence could provide a biomarker and add evidence to the glymphatic connection in the pathogenesis of idiopathic intracranial...
