  • Note:—SSS indicates superior sagittal sinus; ISS, inferior sagittal sinus; VG, vein of Galen; SS, straight sinus; CS, confluence of sinus; RTS, right transverse sinus; LTS, left transverse sinus; RSS, right sigmoid sinus; LSS, left sigmoid sinus; ICV, internal cerebral vein; BVR, basal vein of Rosenthal; VL, vein of Labbé; RC, right cortical vein; LC, left cortical vein; RJV, right jugular vein; LJV, left jugular vein; =, iso-intense thrombus; +, hyperintense thrombus; +/=, hybrid thrombus.

  • a Shadow indicates that residual flow artifacts are present in the segment on BTI without DANTE preparation but not on BTI with DANTE preparation.
