Summary

The purpose of this study is to estimate the intracranial pressure (ICP, the pressure in your head) in subjects with intracranial hypotension (a condition caused by leakage of the fluid that surrounds your brain and spine) using non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques, and to determine whether changes in estimated ICP are seen after treatment of this condition.

Conditions

  • Intracranial Hypotension

Interventions

DEVICE

MRI algorithm

MRI sequences have been developed that may be able to estimate intracranial pressure in a non-invasive fashion

PROCEDURE

Lumbar puncture

Lumbar puncture according to the standard-of-care treatment plan.

PROCEDURE

Epidural patching

Epidural patching will be performed to the standard-of -care treatment plan
