Abstract

In the current study, we aimed to compare the diagnostic efficacies of phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) and three-dimensional constructive interference in steady-state (3D-CISS) sequence over detection of aqueductal stenosis (AS) on the basis of contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance cisternography (MRC).
