Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we analyzed the characteristics of different stenosis types in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) patients with venous sinus stenosis (VSS) using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data from patients who underwent IVUS evaluation during venography or stenting procedures between January 2014 and February 2022. RESULTS Among the 80 patients with intrinsic lesions, 47 cases were identified, including 41 single lesions and 6 multiple lesions. Single lesions consisted of 36 cases of AG, 3 cases of brain herniation, and 2 cases of septation. Multiple intrinsic lesions were found in 6 patients, with AG observed in the transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus. IVUS features varied depending on the anatomical variations of intrinsic stenosis. Additionally, among the 33 cases of extrinsic stenosis, two types were observed: unilateral compression (22 cases) and bilateral compression (11 cases), primarily affecting the transverse sinus. CONCLUSION IVUS effectively differentiated intrinsic and extrinsic types of stenosis and identified intraluminal and mural components of intrinsic stenosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Imaging of the cerebral venous sinuses has evolved Substantially during the past 2 decades, and most recently intravascular sinus imaging with sonography has shed light on the pathophysiology of sinus thrombosis and intracranial hypertension. Optical coherence tomography is the highest resolution intravascular imaging technique available but has not been previously used in cerebral sinus imaging. The purpose of this study was to develop a preclinical animal model of endovascular optical coherence tomography cerebral venous sinus imaging and compare optical coherence tomography findings with histology. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four consecutive Yorkshire swine were selected. The superior sagittal sinus was first catheterized with a microwire, and the optical coherence tomography catheter was delivered via a monorail technique into the sinus. Luminal blood was cleared with a single arterial injection. After structural and Doppler optical coherence tomography imaging, a craniotomy was performed and the sinus and adjacent dura/veins were resected. Bland-Altman analysis was performed to compare optical coherence tomography and histology. RESULTS Technically successful optical coherence tomography images were obtained in 3 of 4 swine. The luminal environment and visualization of dural arteries and draining cortical veins were characterized. The average maximum diameters of the sinus, dural arteries, and cortical veins were 3.14 mm, 135 µm, and 260 µm, respectively. Bland-Altman analysis demonstrated good agreement between histology and optical coherence tomography images. CONCLUSIONS Endovascular optical coherence tomography imaging was feasible in this preclinical animal study. Adoption of this imaging technique in the human cerebral venous sinus could aid in the diagnosis, treatment, and understanding of the pathophysiology of various diseases of the sinus. Human safety and feasibility studies are needed.
