Abstract

With MR, the diagnosis of sinus thrombosis is made by the demonstration of a lack of flow void normally present within these structures. Routine spin-echo imaging uses signal information predominantly from stationary spins. BY tailoring MR pulse sequences, images consisting of information only from moving spins can be formed
