Cisternography

Cisternography involves radiographic study of the brain's basal cisterns. An opaque contrast medium is introduced into the lower back through a spinal tap. Cisternography is often conducted along with CT scan or MRI. The neurologist or neurosurgeon can take a decision whether or not to opt for shunt surgery.
