摘要: Despite a variety of diagnostic methods, differentiation symptoms normal pressure hydrocephalus from those atrophic processes the brain is still difficult task. In present study an attempt non-invasive differential diagnosis (NPH) and atrophy (BA) was presented using volumetric analysis CT images head by means VisNow proprietary software. The based on number voxels converted to amount cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in subarachnoid space, skull base casters, ventricular system. results demonstrate that mean volumes CSF these compartments patients with NPH differed significantly BA. Similarly, space casters BA NPH. Volumetric assessment paper application software seems useful evaluation
