Susceptibility-Weighted MR Imaging for the Detection of Isolated Cortical Vein Thrombosis in a Patient with Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) can be a rare risk factor of cerebral venous thrombosis. We describe a case of isolated cortical vein thrombosis (CVT) secondary to SIH and discuss the value of susceptibility-weighted imaging for the detection of isolated CVT.
