Abstract Objective This study evaluated cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signs in patients with post‐dural puncture headache (PDPH) using an established assessment score developed for spontaneous intracranial hypotension (Bern score). We hypothesize that patients with chronic PDPH do not have typical imaging features of intracranial hypotension.
