  • Title: Cerebral vein thrombosis shown by MRI.
    Author: Salvati CA.
    Journal: Headache; 1990 Oct; 30(10):650-1. PubMed ID: 2272815.
    Abstract:
    A 46 year old man with a short history of left facial pain and numbness, and subsequently headaches, had a normal physical examination and a normal CT scan of head. Lumbar puncture yielded normal CSF under increased pressure. MRI showed thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus, subsequently confirmed by angiography. MRI is a sensitive test for detecting intracranial venous thrombosis, and may be the investigation of choice when this disorder is suspected.
