From: An anatomy-based lumped parameter model of cerebrospinal venous circulation: can an extracranial anatomical change impact intracranial hemodynamics?

Intracranial pressure obtained with model simulations of internal jugular veins (IJVs) (a, b) diameter reduction. a Pressure at the confluence of Rosenthal veins (RVs) to Galen vein (GV) vs internal jugular veins (IJVs) diameter reduction. The result is symmetric for correspondent diameter reduction rates on the opposite side (not shown). Pressure doubled its initial value when one of the IJV had a diameter reduction of at least 80 % and the other one of at least 90 %. b Difference between the SSS pressure estimated with patent IJVs and the SSS pressure estimated reducing IJVs diameter
