  • Title: Isotope cisternography and ventriculography in congenital CNS anomalies.
    Author: Glasauer FE.
    Journal: Childs Brain; 1975; 1(2-3):116-20. PubMed ID: 1183253.
    Abstract:
    Isotope studies are well-tolerated examinations in various congenital CNS anomalies and are valuable in demonstrating the presence of associated hydrocephalus, abnormal accumulation of isotope associated with abnormal CSF flow or a failure of absorption. In some cases these studies may be of differential diagnostic value and a helpful indicator in the choice of surgical treatment. These tests do not disturb the CSF equilibrium which is often observed following air or other contrast studies.
