Prevalence of Anatomical Variants of Dural Sinuses by Magnetic Resonance Venography Evaluation in Sohag

February 4, 2024 updated by: Marina Makram Sabah, Sohag University
MR cerebral venography (MRV) is an MRI examination of the head with either contrast-enhanced or non-contrast sequences to assess patency of the dural venous sinuses and cerebral veins.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of anatomical variants of dural sinuses by Magnetic Resonance Venography evaluation in Sohag
Time Frame: 1 year
The primary outcome for the study is to assess the number of anatomical variants of dural sinuses by MRV evaluation among patients attended to Sohag University Hospitals. Standard head coils with small field of view and thin sections will be used for the examination. Routine MRI brain including Axial T1WI, T2WI, FLAIR, Coronal T2WI, and Sagittal T1 WI will be done with complementary Maximum intensity projection (MIP) 3D MR venography. Imaging findings of the veins and sinuses will be recorded using Philips Achieva1.5T MRI device (Philips Achieva, Netherlands) or Siemens Magnetom Altea1.5T MRI device (Siemens Healthineers, Germany). Any anatomic variants in these sinuses or their drainage, if any, will be recorded.
