| Popis: | Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) study of the brain and Magnetic Resonance Venography (MRV) offer major advantages in evaluating patients suspected of having dural sinus thrombosis. Since 2002, we have examined 49 patients in our department with definite dural sinus thrombosis. MRI and MRV revealed the thrombosis of the dural sinus, and the underlying cause in most patients. There is consensus in the literature that MRI scanning in combination with MRV is the method of choice for evaluating dural sinus thrombosis, and this is also the end result of our study. We also compared the 3D-TOF technique and 2D-PC technique for MRV examination and found that the 3D-TOF technique is clearly the method of choice. |
