From: Anatomic comparison of veins of Labbé between autopsy, digital subtraction angiography and computed tomographic venography

Meningeal veins

Cadavers (n = 60)

DSA (n = 60)

CTV (n = 50)

Tentorium sinus

7.5 ± 3.2 (5.2–11.1)

6.1 ± 2.4 (3.8–10.2)

5.6 ± 2.0 (4.2–7.0)

Upper-transverse sinus

10.9 ± 8.1 (1.7–23.6)

10.3 ± 6.1 (5.4–19.3)

10.4 ± 6.5 (4.4–21.8)

Total

10.0 ± 7.2 (1.7–23.6)

7.8 ± 4.5 (3.8–19.3)

9.2 ± 5.9 (4.2–21.8)

  1. No difference in comparison with the cadavers, DSA and CTV (ANOVA, p > 0.05); No difference was found between two sides (t test, p > 0.05)
