CECT BRAIN VENOGRAPHY (CONTRAST)

Also Known As:

CT Venogram Brain

CTV Brain with Contrast

Cerebral Venous Sinus CT

CT Scan for Dural Sinus Thrombosis

CECT Brain Venography is a contrast-enhanced CT scan used to visualize the brain’s venous system. It helps detect blood clots, venous thrombosis, or abnormalities in brain veins. The procedure involves contrast injection for clearer imaging and is essential for diagnosing vascular conditions affecting brain circulation.

Includes 4 Test Parameters

Technique

Contrast-enhanced CT imaging timed specifically to visualize the venous drainage phase of the brain.

Purpose

To identify blockages (thrombosis) or narrowing in the dural venous sinuses.

Area Covered

The intracranial venous sinuses and cerebral veins.

Key Clinical Point

The preferred diagnostic tool for Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST).

Includes Test 5 Parameters

It is a specialized CT scan that focuses specifically on the "veins" (which carry blood out of the brain) rather than the arteries.

The dye makes the blood in the veins show up bright white, allowing the doctor to see if any vein is blocked by a clot.

It is a blood clot in the brain’s veins; this scan is the primary tool used to diagnose this serious condition.

Yes, usually you should not eat for 4 hours before the scan due to the contrast injection.

Yes, a Creatinine blood test is usually required to ensure your kidneys can safely filter the contrast dye.
