| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To integratively analyze and evaluate the intracranial-condition, we developed a method for simultaneously obtaining functional information on diffusion and fluctuation of water molecules, biomechanical properties, and blood flow in brain using magnetic resonance imaging. We verified the validity of this method using an original phantom. The integrative intracranial-condition analysis-method made it possible to noninvasively assess more detailed and precise information on the intracranial state, and to assist in the clarification of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus.
