“…The CAV collects blood from the superficial and deep middle cerebral veins and the ophthalmic and facial regions ( Haines, 2018 ). CSF drainage from this anterior region has been identified ( Antila et al, 2017 ; Ma et al, 2017 ; Decker et al, 2021 ), but the lymphatic circuitry involved remained unknown because the anterior and middle fossae of the skull base are difficult to assess by classic immunohistological techniques. In humans, noninvasive imaging of dural lymphatic is of interest for the diagnosis and prognosis of neurological diseases ( Absinta et al, 2017 ; Ding et al, 2021 ), and different MRI protocols to detect MLVs have been reported ( Absinta et al, 2017 ; Ringstad and Eide, 2020 ; Wu et al, 2020 ; Ding et al, 2021 ; Albayram et al, 2022 ).…”
