J. Neuroradiol.2011 Nov 01; 32 AB - SUMMARY: The purpose of this article is to compare the visualization quality of ICV and their tributaries on PSI-MRV, 3D CE-MRV, and 3D CE-FSPGR. PSI-MRV has been shown to delineate the ICV, TSV, SV, anterior caudate nucleus veins, and medial atrial veins effectively. Due to its advantages of no contrast material injection, acceptable examination times, and no arterial contamination, PSI-MRV should be considered in the evaluation of deep cerebral veins. 3D CE-FSPGR3D contrast-enhanced fast-spoiled gradient recalled imaging3D CE-MRV3D contrast-enhanced MR venographyICVinternal cerebral veinsMinIPminimum intensity projectionMIPmaximum intensity projectionMRVMR venographyPSIphase-sensitive imagingPSI-MRVphase-sensitive imaging-based MR venographySVseptal veinsSWIsusceptibility-weighted imagingTSVthalamostriate veins
