Differentiating between Hemorrhagic Infarct and Parenchymal Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Figure 8

57-year-old woman presented with dysphasia, headache, and vomiting. Axial unenhanced CT images show hemorrhage in the left temporal parietal area. Apart from the typical temporal location suggesting this may be a venous hemorrhage, there is also high attenuation in the left sigmoid sinus (arrowhead), left transverse sinus (thin arrow), and straight sinus (thick arrow). MR venogram confirms occlusion of these sinuses (not shown).
