A Semi-Automated Technique for Internal Jugular Vein Segmentation in Ultrasound Images Using Active Contours [PDF]
The assessment of the blood volume is crucial for the management of many acute and chronic diseases. Recent studies have shown that circulating blood volume correlates with the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the internal jugular vein (IJV) estimated from ultrasound imagery.

An aneurysm of the internal jugular vein
We report the case of a 28-year-old man with a right sided jugular venous aneurysm that thrombosed and recannalised. Incidence, presentation, complications and treatment are discussed. A 28-year-old man presented with a history of occasional swelling on the right side of the neck.

Assessing jugular venous pressure (JVP) may be challenging yet useful for establishing the bedside diagnosis of congestive heart failure. Vein finder lights illuminate superficial veins and thus can improve visualization of the external jugular vein.

Internal Jugular Vein Phlebectasia in a Child: A Case Report
Neck swellings that appear on straining, crying, and Valsalva maneuver are usually suggestive of laryngocele. Phlebectasia of jugular veins can cause a similar sign but is rare compared to laryngocele.

Noninvasive in vivo photoacoustic measurement of internal jugular venous oxygenation in humans [PDF]
In many clinical conditions, such as head trauma, stroke, and low cardiac output states, the brain is at risk for hypoxic-ischemic injury. The metabolic rate and oxygen consumption of the brain are reflected in internal jugular venous oxygen saturation (sijvO2). The current gold standard for monitoring brain oxygenation is invasive; it requires jugular

Monro-Kellie 2.0: The dynamic vascular and venous pathophysiological components of intracranial pressure [PDF]
For 200 years, the ‘closed box’ analogy of intracranial pressure (ICP) has underpinned neurosurgery and neuro-critical care. Cushing conceptualised the Monro-Kellie doctrine stating that a change in blood, brain or CSF volume resulted in reciprocal ...

Thrombosis of the internal jugular vein [PDF]
A 35-year-old woman presented to our Emergency Department with a gradual-onset occipital headache radiating into her neck, and worsening over the prior 6 days. She reported inability to move her neck due to pain and stiffness. She denied trauma, fevers, or other positive findings on review of systems.
