Overview

MRI

  • MRI is the imaging modality of choice to evaluate for a Chiari I malformation. MRI findings:
  • Tonsillar displacement is measured from the basion-opisthion line on a sigittal image.
  • Herniation is usually at least 5mm, though patients with 3-5mm herniation may also have the malformation.
  • MRI CSF flow studies may prove to be helpful and are currently under investigation.
