The Dignosis of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis by MRI and MRV

Objiective To investigate the magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) and magnetic resonance venography(MRV) features of cerebral venous(sinus) thrombosis. Methods Data of 58 cases of cerebral venous( sinus) thrombosis were analyzed retrospectively, which were performed by MRI and MRV and treated with clinical therapy. All of the cases were scanned by MRI, 39 of which went on cerebral venous sinus 2D PC MRV, the signal changes of cerebral venous sinus, cerebral venous and intracranial were observed and analyzed. Result There are 49 cases with venous sinus thrombosis, in which 31 cases accompanied with single venous thrombosis; 8 cases accompanied with superfacial venous thrombosis, in which 3 cases occurred hemorrhage, 4 cases accompanied with deep cerebral venous thrombosis; there are 6 cases with deep cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and superfacial cerebral venous thrombosis; Single deep cerebral venous thrombosis were 9 cases. Conclusion The combination of MRI and MRV is one of the most effective, noninvasive methods for the diagnosis of cerebral venous(sinus) thrombosis.
