Conclusion
WMH seem to be associated with relatively higher SV values in both migraineurs and controls.
This finding indicates that WMH may be associated with relatively high SV values and thus further research is warranted.
The quantitative CSF flow study revealed that migraineurs demonstrate higher SV compared to asymptomatic controls.
There was also higher prevalence of type III VRS,
ALV and minimal to mild sinusitis in migraineurs compared to controls.
The pituitary height was found to be higher in migraineurs than in control subjects; this finding also needs further investigation.
The small number of normal subjects recruited and the lack of correlation between aqueduct SV and cardiac SV constitute the main limitations of this study.
