The complementary role of angiography and CT in the diagnosis of cerebral sinovenous occlusion

Ital J Neurol Sci. 1982 Oct;3(3):221-7. doi: 10.1007/BF02043314.

Abstract

Three patients with angiographic and CT findings of cerebral sinovenous occlusion are described. Filling defects within the venous pathways are well demonstrated by angiography. Some of the most characteristic CR signs are here described. Full evaluation, including the clinical history, angiography and computed tomography is essential.
