    Two methods for quantifying cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume using cranial computed tomography were compared. The Automated Section Information-I method more sensitively measured partially volumed CSF, offering improved accuracy.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroimaging
    • Medical Physics

    Background:

    • Accurate quantification of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume is crucial for diagnosing various neurological conditions.
    • Cranial computed tomography (CT) is a common imaging modality for assessing intracranial structures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe and compare two distinct methods for quantifying CSF volume in each hemicranium and in total on cranial CT.
    • To evaluate the sensitivity and potential inaccuracies of each quantification method.

    Main Methods:

    • Description of two user-input based analysis methods for CSF volume quantification.
    • Comparison of methods based on their differing approaches to volume averaging.
    • Evaluation of the Automated Section Information-I (ASI-I) method for its sensitivity in measuring partially volumed CSF.

    Main Results:

    • Both methods utilize user-input data for CSF volume estimation.
    • The ASI-I method demonstrated superior sensitivity in measuring partially volumed CSF.
    • Potential sources of inaccuracy related to technical artifacts were identified and summarized.

    Conclusions:

    • The ASI-I method offers enhanced sensitivity for CSF volume quantification on cranial CT.
    • Understanding method-specific differences and technical artifacts is essential for accurate CSF volume assessment.
    • Further refinement of automated methods may improve diagnostic reliability in neuroimaging.
