Quantitative Neuroradiological Assessment of the Airways, Cranial Base Foramina, and Posterior Cranial Fossae in Children with Chiari Malformation: Relationship with Sleep Disorders
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Diagnostic test
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
The severity of sleep disorders in patients with Chiari malformations can vary. The investigators propose to establish a correlation between the severity of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and the quantitative neuroradiological data of the airways, cranial base foramina, and posterior cranial fossae
