Magnetic Resonance Venography (MRV)

Definition

Magnetic resonance venography (MRV) is a non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique that utilizes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology to visualize the veins and their blood flow, particularly in the brain and neck. This procedure helps in detecting and diagnosing various venous disorders, such as blood clots, venous malformations, and venous stenosis.
