What is the webinar about?

The webinar mini-series will elaborate on SIH pathophysiology, neuroimaging by highlighting the value of brain MRI and provide a comprehensive guide to the diagnostic spine work-up for identifying and localizing CSF leaks. We review the three-tier therapeutic model that has been proposed for SIH, focusing on endovascular and surgical techniques.

Key message of the part 1

The quest for the CSF leak may be the fabled search for the needle in the haystack, scrutinizing the entire spine for a dural breach often the size of pin. Precisely locating the site of CSF leakage is fundamental to successful treatment.

Learning objectives of part 1

  1. Brain imaging findings in SIH (bSIH-score)
  2. Spine imaging focusing on myelography techniques
  3. Surgical treatment of SIH
