Anatomical Variants of Dural Sinuses by MRV
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to use the MRV to depict the prevalence of anatomical variants of dural venous sinuses in Sohag population, which can help to avoid potenital pitfalls in the diagnosis of dural venous sinus thrombosis, venous infarcts and venous hemorrhage.
