Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) has long been a neglected entity because of complexities in diagnosis and non-specific clinical presentation. Conventional MRI and phase contrast MRV in conjugation with recent techniques such SWI& DWI were considered more accurate diagnostic tool, non invasive, non ionizing, with high resolution in evaluating patients with suspected cerebral venous occlusion or thrombosis.
