Title Are MRI Findings Sufficient to Allow a Diagnosis of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension without CSF Study?
Creator Homer Chiang, John Carter, Bundhit Tantiwongkosi
Subject High intracranial pressure/headache, Diagnostic tests (ERG, VER, OCT, HRT, mfERG, etc), Eyelid & adnexal disease, Neuroimaging
Description Diagnostic criteria for IIH require normal CSF studies. NANOSNET discussions indicate some clinicians are satisfied in a typical patient if MRI is characteristic with dilated nerve sheaths, posterior globe flattening, and empty sella. We present two cases seen this year arguing otherwise.
