MRI CSF Rhinorrhoea

CSF rhinorrhea is a sign that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is leaking from the brain into the paranasal sinuses, then into the nasal cavity, and finally out of the nose through the front of the nose. It can happen when the bones or membranes of the skull base are broken.

MRI can determine the location and severity of a CSF leak.
