Comprehensive Morphometric Analysis to Identify Key Neuroimaging Biomarkers for the Diagnosis of Adult Hydrocephalus Using Artificial Intelligence

This study highlights the importance of a multifaceted diagnostic approach incorporating 5 easily measurable 1-D neuroimaging biomarkers for neurosurgeons to differentiate non-normal pressure hydrocephalus from healthy subjects. Incorporating our artificial intelligence model, interpreted through SHAP analysis, into routine clinical workflows may transform the diagnostic landscape for hydrocephalus by standardizing diagnosis and overcoming the limitations of visual evaluations, particularly in early stages and challenging cases.
