The authors describe a new method of retrograde selective ventriculography by means of which the necessity for making an opening in the skull and for a trans-cerebral ventricular puncture is avoided. Trough a sub-occipital puncture and cannula a radio-opaque catheter is guided under radiological control into the ventricular system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
