Materials and methods This retrospective study included consecutive patients from 2010 to 2016 for whom endoscopic evaluation of the third ventricle was conducted. The anterior portion of the right and left streaks of ChPl3V was evaluated in 8 patients on 16 sites, while the posterior portion of both streaks ofChPl3V was evaluated in 13 patients on 26 sites. Sensitivity of MRVn to visualize ChPl3V with endoscopic movies as the golden standard was calculated. Results Sensitivity of MRVn in visualizing the anterior portion of ChPl3V was 0.813, and that for the posterior portion 0.692. The anterior portion of ChPl3V was visualized in all cases where no tumor contacted the foramen of Monro. Conclusion MRVn visualizes the anterior portion of ChPl3V with significant sensitivity and the posterior portion with lower one., Japanese Journal of Radiology. 2019, 37, 449–457., 新大院博(医)甲第940号}, title = {Detectability of the choroid plexus of the third ventricle with magnetic resonance ventriculography}, year = {} }
