    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Accurate visualization of the ventricular system is crucial for neurosurgical diagnosis and planning.
    • Previous methods may have limitations in fully delineating the entire ventricular anatomy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel technique for combined Conray-Myodil ventriculography.
    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of this combined contrast agent mixture for visualizing the brain's ventricular system.

    Main Methods:

    • An emulsified mixture of Conray and Myodil was prepared immediately prior to injection.
    • The contrast agent mixture was administered via injection into the lateral ventricle.
    • The technique was applied in 208 neurosurgical cases.

    Main Results:

    • The combined Conray-Myodil ventriculography provided excellent visualization of the entire ventricular system.
    • No complications were reported in any of the 208 neurosurgical cases utilizing this method.

    Conclusions:

    • Combined Conray-Myodil ventriculography is an effective and safe imaging modality for the neurosurgical evaluation of the ventricular system.
    • This technique offers superior visualization compared to potentially older methods, with a favorable safety profile.
