Cognard type
Venous drainage pattern
I

IIa
Venous drainage into dural venous sinus with retrograde flow
IIb
Venous drainage into dural venous sinus with antegrade flow and CVR
IIa + b
Venous drainage into dural venous sinus with retrograde flow and CVR
III
Venous drainage directly into subarachnoid veins (CVR only)
IV
