I am uncertain about the veracity of the comments concerning the length of time necessary to replete the CSF after the procedure. Physiologically, we recycle CSF 2-3 times daily, producing 0.4mL/min (about 600mL/day) to fill a volume of about 150mL. Source: Johanson CE, Duncan JA 3rd, Klinge PM, et al.

normal movement
editIt is unclear whether "before normal movement" refers to movement of the cerebrospinal fluid or movement of the patient.
Duplication
editAfter adding to this article, I just found another article on pneumoencephalography. Since the other is somewhat more detailed as well as older, this one should really be merged into the other. Does someone know how to do this? Dirac66 01:58, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed about the merge. You'd just merge the material from Pneumoencephalogram into the article Pneumoencephalography, then replace the content of Pneumoencephalogram with #redirect [[Pneumoencephalography]]. Gordonofcartoon 03:00, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
It is not pneumoencephalogram but cerebral angiogram that appears in the movie the exorcist. Watch the movie again, they place a needle in the carotid and inject not in the lumbar spine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.116.162.174 (talk) 18:31, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
