Fig. 1

A graph of the pressure drop vs. flow rate relationship for the five patients. The dots represent the individual measurements. The red line is the threshold at which IIH would be induced i.e. 8.3 mmHg. The black line is the current linear model of flow rate vs. pressure. Note the black line never reaches the IIH threshold, however, 4 out of the 5 quadratic curves reach the threshold. SSS Superior Sagittal Sinus, IJV Internal Jugular Vein
