Condition(s) studied

Post-Dural Puncture Headache

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

MRI examination

MRI examination: All included subjects will be examined with MRI

Study summary

To improve treatment for post dural puncture headache, its pathophysiology needs to be explored. Dural puncture alters CNS dynamics; using advanced MRI, we aim to investigate PDPHs pathophysiology explained by brain movement, cerebral blood flow, CSF dynamics and the effect of epidural blood patch.
