The value of high resolution black blood 3D T1-VISTA-MSDE in the detection of cerebral venous sinus

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is one of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases with low morbidity and high mortality. Three-dimensional volumetric isotropic turbo spin echo acquisition(3D-VISTA)can be adopted, which has high resolution and most blood signals will be suppressed. In addition, a motion-sensitized and fault-driven equilibrium(MSDE) technology were applied for more thorough blood suppression. 3D-VISTA showed SNR and CNR were significantly higher than when compared with enhanced three-dimensional TFE sequence, which could more accurately identify CVST. 3D-VISTA sequence can be used to improve the recognition rate of craniocerebral veins, which could provide valuable evidence for accurate identification of clinical craniocerebral venous thrombosis.
