MR DIAGNOSIS OF DURAL VENOUS SINUS THROMBOSIS COMPLICATING L-ASPARAGINASE THERAPY COMPUTERIZED MEDICAL IMAGING AND GRAPHICS SCHICK, R. M., Jolesz, F., Barnes, P. D., Macklis, J. D. 1989; 13 (4): 319-327

Abstract

Dural venous sinus thrombosis is an important complication of L-asparaginase chemotherapy. The diagnosis and followup of this condition, using spin echo and fast imaging techniques, is described in three patients. Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging is a rapid, noninvasive technique for diagnosis and follow-up of this condition. Fast imaging techniques can improve the assessment of these patients.
