Diagnostic Yield of Pelvic Magnetic Resonance Venography in Patients with Cryptogenic Stroke and Patent Foramen Ovale
Stroke 45:2324-2329, Liberman, A.L.,et al, 2014
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Among patients with ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack and patent foramen ovale, the majority of detected DVTs were in LE veins rather than the pelvic veins and did not differ by stroke subtype. The routine inclusion of pelvic magnetic resonance venography in the diagnostic evaluation of CS warrants further prospective investigation.
