Flow dynamics of cerebrospinal fluid between the intracranial cavity and the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve measured with a diffusion magnetic resonance imaging sequence in patients with normal tension glaucoma.

Diffusion-weighted imaging provides a method to evaluate CSF flow within the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve in a non-invasive manner.

Impaired cerebrospinal fluid dynamics along the entire optic nerve in normal-tension glaucoma.

This study demonstrates a gradual reduction in CLCSF towards the retrobulbar segment in NTG, while in controls without NTG, no reduction in CLCSF was measured within the orbital segments.

Incidence of optic nerve kinking in a cohort of patients with Normal tension glaucoma.

This study demonstrates a high statistically significant incidence of optic nerve kinking in patients with NTG compared to controls without known optic nerve diseases.

Age related cerebrospinal fluid flow dynamics in the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve in patients with normal tension glaucoma, measured by diffusion weighted MRI.

FRR was significantly reduced in NTGs compared to age-matched controls without any significant differences within the age groups themselves.
