Diagnosis of internal jugular vein thrombosis by computed tomography.
Internal jugular vein thrombosis was diagnosed by computed tomography in three cases. In all cases, selective catheterization of the internal jugular vein was avoided. Rapid intravenous infusion of contrast material was made to obtain prolonged blood iodine levels, allowing sufficient time to scan the neck adequately.
