Abstract
Cerebral venous system is divided into three main groups: deep venous system, superficial venous system and dural sinuses. Its development begins from sixth week of gestation and finishes its formation around 16th week. It is important to recognize brain venous anatomy throughout different diagnostic modalities to identify venous vascular structures and territories of the cerebral parenchyma, in order to properly interpret the images and perform clinical correlation for patients with cerebral pathology of venous etiology.
