Abstract
The glymphatic system is a recently discovered network unique to the central nervous system that allows for dynamic exchange of interstitial fluid (ISF) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). As detailed in part I, ISF and CSF transport along paravascular channels of the penetrating arteries and possibly veins allow essential clearance of neurotoxic solutes from the interstitium to the CSF efflux pathways. Imaging tests to investigate this neurophysiologic function, although challenging, are being developed and are reviewed herein. These include direct visualization of CSF transport using postcontrast imaging techniques following intravenous or intrathecal administration of contrast material and indirect glymphatic assessment with detection of enlarged perivascular spaces. Application of MRI techniques, including intravoxel incoherent motion, diffusion tensor imaging, and chemical exchange saturation transfer, is also discussed, as are methods for imaging dural lymphatic channels involved with CSF efflux. Subsequently, glymphatic function is considered in the context of proteinopathies associated with neurodegenerative diseases and traumatic brain injury, cytotoxic edema following acute ischemic stroke, and chronic hydrocephalus after subarachnoid hemorrhage. These examples highlight the substantial role of the glymphatic system in neurophysiology and the development of certain neuropathologic abnormalities, stressing the importance of its consideration when interpreting neuroimaging investigations. © RSNA, 2021.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
