Popis: The occipital sinus could be identified in 190 (76%) of 250 brain scans. A midline single sinus was observed in 163 cases (86%), a double sinus in 17 (9%), and a laterally deviated sinus in 10 (6%). The relative width of the sinus as well as its course and intensity of activity are discussed. Correct diagnosis of posterior fossa lesions requires appreciation of the variability of appearance of the. occipital sinus on brain scans. The value of posterior stereoscanning is emphasized.
