Brain Lymphatic MRI Shows Aging-Linked Drainage Changes
A 2022 Nature Communications study used non-contrast 3D T2-FLAIR magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to map human brain lymphatic signals in living people, including apparent channels from cranial nerves and skull-base structures toward cervical lymph nodes. Research Highlights Non-contrast MRI visualized lymphatic-like brain drainage: Albayram et al. identified dorsal dural signals near venous sinuses and ventral …
