Description

Radionuclide findings in a case of cavernous sinus occlusion by an intracavernous aneurysm are described. A brain image obtained 10 minutes after injection of 99Tc-pertechnetate shows diminished activity in the area of the right cavernous sinus and increased activity in the area of the right sylvian veins; these are attributed to abnormal venous blood flow and may serve as a sign of cavernous sinus occlusion
