✦ Synopsis

CT cisternography and CSF scintigraphy are indispensable in the detailed morphologic and etiologic evaluation of special types of childhood hydrocephalus. In addition these investigations afford interesting insights into CSF dynamics in apparently complete membranous or tumorous obstruction of the fourth ventricle and into the genesis of internal hydrocephalus in cerebellopontine angle tumors.
