Understanding MRI Brain With Venography
What is MRI Brain With Venography?
A Magnetic Resonance Imagining (MRI) MRI brain with Venography creates a picture of the intracranial venous system (brain veins) and surrounding its soft tissues.
This test is prescribed by the doctor to diagnose cerebral venous thrombosis (blood clot formation in the dural venous sinuses which leads to blockage, and to detect venous occlusion (veins blockage) which causes stroke or brain hemorrhage.
What is MRI Brain With Venography used for?
- To diagnose cerebral venous thrombosis (blood clot formation in the dural venous sinuses which leads to blockage) and dural sinuses thrombosis
- To detect venous occlusion (veins blockage) which causes stroke or brain haemorrhage
- To find out the chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (obstructed blood flow in the veins) and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (increased intracranial pressure around the brain).
