---|---|---|
ATBV and ATV trunk | 30 | 29 |
MTBV | 25 | 26 |
PTV | 27 | 27 |
MTV | 28 | 26 |
VL termination | 47 | 47 |
LTS | 23 | 30 |
Transverse sinus | 12 | 10 |

Note.—ATBV indicates anterior temporobasal vein; ATV, anterior temporal vein; MTBV, middle temporobasal vein; PTV, posterior temporal vein; MTV, middle temporal vein; VL, vein of Labbé; LTS, lateral tentorial sinus.
* Posterior temporobasal vein and occipitobasal vein not included in assessment because of poor visibility.
