Zusammenfassung
Background: The neurosonological assessment of brain perfusion has been improved recently by more efficient imaging modes like bilateral Phase Inversion Harmonic Imaging (PIHI) enabling the ultrasonic detection of cerebral perfusion deficits in acute ischemic stroke. The aim of this case report is to compare findings from PIHI with findings from perfusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (pw-MRI) in order to examine the diagnostic value of PIHI in cerebral venous thrombosis. Methods: A 50-year-old female patient with thrombosis of right-sided transverse sinus, superior sagittal sinus, straight sinus and vein…
