Description
Background
Several studies using Doppler ultrasound have suggested cerebral venous drainage is through paravertebral venous plexus due to the collapse of internal jugular veins in an upright position.
Methods
We present a technique of acquiring venographic images during an upright position as part of catheter-based angiography to provide additional information regarding cerebral venous diseases. Angiographic images in anteroposterior projection were acquired in lying position and after patients were placed at 60° using radiolucent supporting wedges on angiographic table.
