Comparison of susceptibility-weighted angiography (SWAN) and T2 gradient-echo sequences for the detection of acute cerebral venous thrombosis.

In this small cohort, SWAN sequence at 3T did not yield additional value for thrombus detection in acute CVT compared to T2*. This study highlights SWAN's greatest weakness both for diagnostic accuracy and lesion conspicuity compared to T2* for acute venous clot detection near the skull base.
