See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Asymptomatic venous air emboli can be identified in several locations in the head and neck.The time between manipulation of intravenous lines and the scan,the position of the patient,and the anatomy of the patient probably all affect the likelihood of identifying venous air emboli on CT scans.
