Human jugular vein collapse in the upright posture: implications for postural intracranial pressure regulation

BACKGROUND: Intracranial pressure (ICP) is directly related to cranial dural venous pressure (P (dural)). In the upright posture, P (dural) is affected by the collapse of the internal jugular veins (IJVs) but this regulation of the venous pressure has not been fully understood. A potential biomechan...
