Abstract:
The glymphatic system is a fluid dynamics network that is important for maintaining homeostasis of the brain, and it is also a new target for the treatment of various central nervous system diseases. The crucial point regarding research into the glymphatic system is the microhydrodynamics of the cerebrospinal fluid tracer. This review summarizes the emerging technologies, such as magnetic resonance technology, two photon microscopic imaging technology, near infrared fluorescence imaging technology, and transcranial macroscopic imaging, and summarizes its research applications and technical advantages to provide methodological strategies for basic and clinical research on glymphatic system function.
