U.S., Sept. 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07172841) titled 'Non-invasive Diagnostics of Shunt Obstruction in Adult Hydrocephalus' on March 07.
Brief Summary: The goal of this RCT is to test whether volumetric assessment of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could diagnose shunt obstruction in Adult Hydrocephalus patients, and in addition to explore correlations of blood biomarkers surrounding shunt obstruction. Thirdly to investigate correlations with clinical symptom burden before and after surgery.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Can volumetric assessment of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) aid in diagnosis of shunt obstruction? Are there dynamical changes in blood biomarker concentrat...
