MR venography in idiopathic intracranial hypertension: unappreciated and misunderstood.
BACKGROUND Venous sinus disease must be excluded before diagnosing idiopathic intracranial hypertension but is found only rarely in typical cases. Magnetic resonance venography (MRV) is the technique of choice for investigating this, and provides images that are diagnostic and easy to interpret. However, recent work using more invasive techniques has documented pressure gradients and stenoses i...
متن کاملIntracranial MR venography in children: normal anatomy and variations.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Little information is available regarding the anatomy of the intracranial veins and sinuses that can be shown on MR venograms of children. The aim of this study was to determine the normal venous anatomy and anatomic variants. METHODS Fifty children who were referred for investigation of developmental delay and who had normal results of MR imaging of the brain were recr...
متن کاملMR imaging findings in patients with secondary intracranial hypertension.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE IH can alter the configuration of anatomic structures of the central nervous system. We determined the sensitivity and specificity of MR imaging to detect these changes in patients with secondary IH. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients (n = 36) with IH were prospectively investigated with MR imaging and were matched to 36 controls. MR images were evaluated for elongation and...
متن کاملMR Elastography Demonstrates Increased Brain Stiffness in Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Normal pressure hydrocephalus is a reversible neurologic disorder characterized by a triad of cognitive impairment, gait abnormality, and urinary incontinence that is commonly treated with ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement. However, multiple overlapping symptoms often make it difficult to differentiate normal pressure hydrocephalus from other types of dementia, and imp...
متن کاملSubtraction MR Venography Acquired from Time-Resolved Contrast-Enhanced MR Angiography: Comparison with Phase-Contrast MR Venography and Single-Phase Contrast-Enhanced MR Venography
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the image characteristics of subtraction magnetic resonance venography (SMRV) from time-resolved contrast-enhanced MR angiography (TRMRA) compared with phase-contrast MR venography (PCMRV) and single-phase contrast-enhanced MR venography (CEMRV). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-one patients who underwent brain MR venography (MRV) using standard protocols (PCMRV, CEMRV, and ...
