MR Differential Diagnosis of Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus and Alzheimer Disease:Significance of Perihippocampal Fissures AJNR 19:813-819, Holodny,A.I.,et al, 1998 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Significant differences between the two groups were found for the PHFs and lateral ventricles by both the subjective and objective methods,with a high degree of correlation between the two methods.The degree of dilatation of PHFs appears to be a sensitive and specific marker for differentiating AD from NPH by both subjective and objective means,with a very small overlap between the two groups.This observation may have relevance in day-to-day practice.
