Perivascular space (PVS) is a crevice between two slices of cerebral pia maters, filled with tissue fluid, which be formed by pia mater emboling in the surrounding of cerebral perforating branch (excluding micrangium). Normal PVS (diameter < 2 mm) can be found in almost all healthy adults; however enlarged PVS (diameter > 2 mm) has correlation with neurological disorders probably. The article reviews the formation mechanism, imageology characteristics and the relation with neurological disorders of PVS, which is beneficial to the research of some neurological disorders etiopathogenesis and treatment.
