Differential diagnosis table for ovarian vein thrombosis

CT Ultrasound MRI Angiography
Ovarian vein thrombosis Central filling defect surrounded by dense contrast Echogenic mass expanding vein, noncompressible, no flow T1 focal hyperintense vein, T2 hyperintense, no flow void on spin echo sequences Non-opacified vein, filling defect
Mixing artifact Heterogeneous, low to intermediate density Reverberation artifact, slow flow artifact, incorrect Doppler settings Flow-related enhancement when vessel in plane with imaging slice Poor injection
