Internal jugular vein (IJV) stenosis is associated with several central nervous system
disorders such as Ménière or Alzheimer's disease. The extrinsic compression between the …

Understanding the altered physiology following cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion in the
setting of adult hydrocephalus is important for optimizing patient care and avoiding …

Background The elongation of the styloid process is historically associated with two variants
of the Eagle syndrome. The classic one, mainly characterized by pain and dysphagia, and …

Background Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) remains one of those neurodegenerative
diseases for which the cause remains unknown. Many clinically diagnosed cases of IPD are …

We developed a mathematical model of the cerebral venous outflow for the simulation of the
average blood flows and pressures in the main drainage vessels of the brain. The main …

Cardiovascular haemodynamics alters during posture changes and exposure to
microgravity. Vascular auto-remodelling observed in subjects living in space environment …

The purpose of the work described here was to investigate the feasibility of assessing the
jugular venous pulse (JVP) using ultrasound (US) equipment. Three young healthy subjects …

Assessment of cerebral venous return is growing interest for potential application in clinical
practice. Doppler ultrasound (DUS) was used as a screening tool. However, three meta …

Compliance is a characteristic of every deformable system. Compliance is very clear
concept in physics and mechanics but in clinics, perhaps, is not the same. However, in veins …

Loss of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) occurs commonly in daily neurosurgical practice.
Understanding the altered physiology following CSF loss is important for optimization of …
