Figure 2

Total CSF volume. A) CSF in the ventricles was measured by placing fiducial points (pink dots) on black pixels within the region of interest. FastMarching Segmentation in Slicer 3D generates a rough sketch of the region of interest (green areas), as well as a 3D model. Volume is calculated from this model. B) Similar steps were taken to measure CSF in the subarachnoid space. All measurements were done by one reader for consistency. C) T1-weighted MR images. Each row represents five coronal slices from one rat brain (top row = 3 month, second row = 12 month, third row = 20 month, bottom row = 30 month). Images were magnified and brightened for printing purposes.
