What does it mean if an MRI shows a Subtle Venous Angioma?
A subtle venous angioma, also known as a developmental venous anomaly (DVA), is a type of vascular malformation in the brain characterized by a network of small veins that drain into a larger vein. Typically, these anomalies are considered benign and often do not require treatment unless they are associated with other neurological issues or symptoms. Their presence on an MRI might necessitate monitoring but usually does not indicate any immediate health threat. However, a healthcare provider should evaluate the findings in the context of a patient's overall clinical picture.

What drains venous blood from the brain and delivers it to the internal jugular veins?
The venous blood from the brain is drained by a network of veins called the cerebral venous sinuses. The largest of these sinuses is the superior sagittal sinus, which ultimately drains into the internal jugular veins.
What do we call the fluid that is enclosed within the venous sinuses?
The fluid that is in the dural venous sinuses is venous blood that originates from the brain or cranial cavity. They collect blood from veins on the surface of the brain. Blood from the sinuses empties into the internal jugular veins

Which of the three meningeal layers forms the dural venous sinuses?
The dura mater forms the dural venous sinuses, which are venous channels located between the layers of the dura mater in the brain. These sinuses are important structures for draining blood and cerebrospinal fluid from the brain.
What is found within the dural sinuses of the brain?
The dural sinuses are blood-filled channels located between the layers of the dura mater, the outermost membrane surrounding the brain. They collect blood from the brain and drain it back into the systemic circulation through the internal jugular vein. The sinuses contain venous blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and arachnoid granulations.
What is palsy and what can cause it?
