Description |
Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) is a new 3D-reconstructed gradient echo sequence that is highly sensitive for the paramagnetic effect of deoxyhemoglobin serving as an intrinsic contrast agent of cerebral veins. The most frequent cause of symmetrically swollen optic nerves is idiopathic intracranial hypertension, the cause of which is still unknown but thought to be related to the cerebral venous system. |
