Effects of Spaceflight on Astronaut Brain Structure as Indicated on MRI
NEJM 377:1746-1753, Roberts, D.R.,et al, 2017
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Narrowing of the central sulcus, upward shift of the brain, and narrowing of CSF spaces at the vertex occurred frequently and predominantly in astronauts after long-duration flights. Further investigation, including repeated postflight imaging conducted after some time on Earth, is required to determine the duration and clinical significance of these changes.
