Sensitivity of MRI of the Spine Compared with CT Myelography in Orthostatic Headache with CSF Leak
Neurol 81:1789-1792, Starling, A.,et al, 2013
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
When compared with the gold standard of CTM, MRI of the spine appears to be sensitive and less invasive imaging modality for detecting a spinal CSF leak, suggesting that MRI of the spine should be the imaging modality of first choice for the detection of spinal CSF leaks.
