Magnetic resonance (MR) signal changes suggestive of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) on T1- and T2-weighted images may be subtle and their identification requires a high degree of suspicion. Magnetic resonance venography remains essential for definitive diagnosis. Recent reports have shown that T2(*)-weighted MR sequence is more sensitive than T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images in detecting subarachnoid and intracerebral hemorrhages, both of which can be seen in association with CVT. The value of T2*-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing CVT has not been well studied.
