Diagnostic value of T2*-weighted gradient-echo MRI for segmental evaluation in cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.

Clinical Imaging 2015 January
OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the diagnostic value of gradient-echo (GRE) imaging in patients with "cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis" (CVST).

MATERIALS AND METHODS: In total, 130 thrombosed venous segment signal intensities in 45 patients with CVST were analyzed retrospectively using magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance venography.

RESULTS: The T2* GRE sequence had a diagnostic value for detecting acute and subacute superior sagittal sinus (SSS) thrombosis and thrombosis of the deep veins (DVs), and cortical veins (CVs; P<.05).

CONCLUSIONS: The T2* GRE sequence had a high diagnostic value for detecting both acute and subacute SSS, DV, and CV thromboses.
