The purpose of this article is to bring some of the potential causes of false-positive and false-negative interpretations of dural sinus thrombosis (DST) on cross-section imaging studies to the attention of radiologists.
The prompt diagnosis of DST can be important in many cases and a false-positive diagnosis can cause a delay in establishing the correct diagnosis as well as lead to implementation of inappropriate therapy. We hope that this article helps to reduce the number of such cases in the daily practice of the reader.
本文旨在提请放射科医生注意，在横断面成像研究中，硬脑膜窦血栓形成（DST）的假阳性和假阴性解释可能存在一些潜在原因。
在许多情况下，及时诊断 DST 非常重要，假阳性诊断不仅可能导致正确诊断的延误，还可能导致不适当的治疗。我们希望本文有助于减少读者日常工作中此类病例的数量。
