Measuring Brain Biomechanics in Chronically Shunted Hydrocephalus with MR Elastography

Video Poster

4th International CSF Hydrodynamics Symposium

GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - ATLANTA, GA - JUNE 19-20, 2017
Dr. Mark Wagshul (Albert Einstein School of Medicine, New York, USA) discusses the difficulties in making accurate measures for hydrocephalus patients who are chronically shunted, as well as his methods for improving the process of making those measures. This presentation was given at the 4th International CSF Hydrodynamics Symposium, which was held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. (2017)

This presentation was given at the 4th International CSF Hydrodynamics Symposium, which was held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. This biennial conference brings together scientists, engineers, clinicians and mathematicians from around the world to discuss the underlying mechanisms that cause disorders of CSF flow, like syringomyelia and Chiari malformation.

Participants discuss their own research and bounce ideas off one another to better comprehend these poorly understood mechanisms. Thanks to Dr. John Oshinski and Dr. M. Keith Sharp for organizing this year's scientific program.

CSF is proud to once again support this incredible meeting of the minds. This support is made possible by a generous grant from the Monkton Institute, Inc.
