Mesenteric venous thrombosis: diagnosis and noninvasive imaging Bradbury MS; Kavanagh PV; Bechtold RE; Chen MY; Ott DJ; Regan JD; Weber TMRadiographics 2002[May]; 22 (3): 527-41Mesenteric venous thrombosis is an uncommon but potentially lethal cause of bowel ischemia. Several imaging methods are available for diagnosis, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. Doppler ultrasonography allows direct evaluation of the mesenteric and portal veins, provides semiquantitative flow information, and allows Doppler waveform analysis of the visceral vessels; however, it is operator dependent and is often limited by overlying bowel gas. Conventional contrast material-enhanced computed tomography (CT) allows sensitive detection of venous thrombosis within the central large vessels of the portomesenteric circulation and any associated secondary findings; however, it is limited by respiratory misregistration, motion artifact, and substantially decreased longitudinal spatial resolution. Helical CT and CT angiography, especially when performed with multi-detector row scanners, and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, particularly gadolinium-enhanced MR angiography, enable volumetric acquisitions in a single breath hold, eliminating motion artifact and suppressing respiratory misregistration. Helical CT angiography and three-dimensional gadolinium-enhanced MR angiography should be considered the primary diagnostic modalities for patients with a high clinical suspicion of mesenteric ischemia. Conventional angiography is reserved for equivocal cases at noninvasive imaging and is also used in conjunction with transcatheter therapeutic techniques in management of symptomatic portal and mesenteric venous thrombosis.|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Angiography[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Imaging[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Mesenteric Vascular Occlusion/*diagnosis[MESH]|Mesenteric Veins[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH]|Ultrasonography, Doppler[MESH]|Venous Thrombosis/*diagnosis[MESH] |
