Metamorphosis in the pupae of the Trypoxylus dichotomus was continuously observed at 9.4T until their emergence. A large liquid-like mass occupied most of the volume in the trunk, while the surrounding tissue already existed at the beginning of the observation period. As the mass shrunk, tissues such as flight muscle formed, whereas the reservoir became prolonged to form the intestinal tract. This implies that the liquid-like mass worked as the raw material for creating adult tissues.

One of the major issues in the surgical treatment of gliomas is the concern about maximizing the extent of resection while minimizing neurological impairment. Thus, surgical planning by carefully observing the relationship between the glioma infiltration area and eloquent area of the connecting fibers is crucial. Neurosurgeons usually detect an eloquent area by functional MRI and identify a connecting fiber by diffusion tensor imaging. However, during surgery, the accuracy of neuronavigation can be decreased due to brain shift, but the positional information may be updated by intraoperative MRI and the next steps can be planned accordingly. In addition, various intraoperative modalities may be used to guide surgery, including neurophysiological monitoring that provides real-time information (e.g., awake surgery, motor-evoked potentials, and sensory evoked potential); photodynamic diagnosis, which can identify high-grade glioma cells; and other imaging techniques that provide anatomical information during the surgery. In this review, we present the historical and current context of the intraoperative MRI and some related approaches for an audience active in the technical, clinical, and research areas of radiology, as well as mention important aspects regarding safety and types of devices.

The “cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation theory” of CSF flowing unidirectionally and circulating through the ventricles and subarachnoid space in a downward or upward fashion has been widely recognized. In this review, observations of CSF motion using different magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques are described, findings that are shared among these techniques are extracted, and CSF motion, as we currently understand it based on the results from the quantitative analysis of CSF motion, is discussed, along with a discussion of slower water molecule motion in the perivascular, paravascular, and brain parenchyma. Today, a shared consensus regarding CSF motion is being formed, as follows: CSF motion is not a circulatory flow, but a combination of various directions of flow in the ventricles and subarachnoid space, and the acceleration of CSF motion differs depending on the CSF space. It is now necessary to revise the currently held concept that CSF flows unidirectionally. Currently, water molecule motion in the order of centimeters per second can be detected with various MRI techniques. Thus, we need new MRI techniques with high-velocity sensitivity, such as in the order of 10 μm/s, to determine water molecule movement in the vessel wall, paravascular space, and brain parenchyma. In this paper, the authors review the previous and current concepts of CSF motion in the central nervous system using various MRI techniques.

Purpose: To extract the status of hydrocephalus and other cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-related diseases, a technique to characterize the cardiac- and respiratory-driven CSF motions separately under free breathing was developed. This technique is based on steady-state free precession phase contrast (SSFP-PC) imaging in combination with a Stockwell transform (S-transform).Methods: 2D SSFP-PC at 3 T was applied to measure the CSF velocity in the caudal-cranial direction within a sagittal slice at the midline (N = 3) under 6-, 10-, and 16-s respiratory cycles and free breathing. The frequency-dependent window width of the S-transform was controlled by a particular scaling factor, which then converted the CSF velocity waveform into a spectrogram. Based on the frequency bands of the cardiac pulsation and respiration, as determined by the electrocardiogram (ECG) and respirator pressure sensors, Gaussian bandpass filters were applied to the CSF spectrogram to extract the time-domain cardiac- and respiratory-driven waveforms.Results: The cardiac-driven CSF velocity component appeared in the spectrogram clearly under all respiratory conditions. The respiratory-driven velocity under the controlled respiratory cycles was observed as constant frequency signals, compared to a time-varying frequency signal under free breathing. When the widow width was optimized using the scale factor, the temporal change in the respiratory-driven CSF component was even more apparent under free breathing.Conclusion: Velocity amplitude variations and transient frequency changes of both cardiac- and respiratory-driven components were successfully characterized. These findings indicated that the proposed technique is useful for evaluating CSF motions driven by different cyclic forces.
