Thrombosis of the Deep Cerebral Veins:CT and MRI Findings with Pathologic Correlation
Neuroradiology 39:777-780, Madan,A.,et al, 1997

Article Abstract
Deep cerebral vein thrombosis can present with acute,severe neurological symptoms and may be rapidly fatal as in the 20-year-old woman reported here.Although MRI is superior for establishing the diagnosis,CT is usually the first examination performed in the clinical setting.It is therefore important to recognize certain indicators such as extensive bithalamic low density.These and certain other less specific signs are correlated with the MRI and autopsy findings.
