Direct 3D rotational venography: Insights in optimizing visualization:

• Three-dimensional rotational venography (3D-RV) enhances angiography, offering detailed venous anatomy visuals. It supports diagnosing and treating venous pathologies, studied in 13 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) patients.
• Procedures included 16 direct 3D-RVs, using general anesthesia or monitored anesthesia care. Venous access was achieved mainly through the upper extremity, contributing to detailed diagnostic insights without significant procedural complications.
• 3D-RV is proven reliable and safe, improving accuracy in venous anatomy and stent assessments, without notably increasing procedure time or radiation exposure, ensuring minimal patient risk.
