Parenchymal Abnormalities Associated with Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis: Assessment with Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging AJNR 25:1666-1675, Mullins,M.E.,et al, 2004 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract DW imaging in these patients disclosed three lesion types: lesions with elevated diffusion that resolved, consistent with vasogenic edema; lesions with low diffusion that persisted, consistent with cytotoxic edema in patients without seizure activity; and lesions with low diffusion that resolved in patients with seizure activity. This information may be important in prospectively determining severity of irreversible injury and in patient treatment.
