With IV Contrast: Standard portal venous phase may highlight NIVL, but CTV better for venous evaluation. Can identify alternative compression sources. Computational fluid dynamic evaluation can quantify flow disturbances
Without and With IV Contrast: Similar details as with IV contrast. Without IV contrast is inferior for vasculature evaluation but can add diagnostic value in some cases
Without IV Contrast: Limited evaluation of vasculature, no relevant literature for initial evaluation
US
Intravascular Iliac Veins: No relevant literature for initial evaluation. Invasive, not a first - line study. Reference standard for evaluation after diagnosis, better for lesion localization and characterization than venography
Lower Extremity: Can show postthrombotic changes. Diagnostic accuracy varies, not optimal for NIVL diagnosis due to lack of duplex
Lower Extremity With IV Contrast: Limited data for evaluating chronic iliac vein obstruction, not an ideal initial study
Radiography
Abdomen: No relevant literature for initial evaluation, venous compression not evident
Catheter Venography
Pelvis and Lower Extremity: No relevant literature for initial evaluation. Invasive, less reasonable with non - invasive options. Poor sensitivity compared to IVUS, may over - identify non - significant variants
3 - D Rotational Venography: Higher detection rate of pelvic collateral veins, contralateral iliac vein filling, and external iliac vein indentation. Provides richer diagnostic information, reduces procedure time and contrast usage
MRI
Abdomen and Pelvis
With IV Contrast: No relevant literature for initial evaluation, suboptimal for venous structure evaluation
Without and With IV Contrast: Similar details as with IV contrast, inferior for vasculature evaluation
Without IV Contrast: No relevant literature for initial evaluation, suboptimal for venous structure evaluation
MRV
Abdomen and Pelvis With IV Contrast: A reasonable screening method for venous obstruction
Abdomen and Pelvis Without and With IV Contrast: A reasonable screening method for venous obstruction
Abdomen and Pelvis Without IV Contrast: A reasonable screening method for venous obstruction, specialized sequences can aid in detection
CTA
Abdomen and Pelvis With Bilateral Lower Extremity Runoff With IV Contrast: Designed for arterial anatomy, limited evaluation of venous structures, no relevant literature for initial evaluation
Abdomen and Pelvis With IV Contrast: Designed for arterial anatomy, limited evaluation of venous structures, no relevant literature for initial evaluation
CTV
Abdomen and Pelvis With Bilateral Lower Extremity Runoff With IV Contrast: An effective screening tool for venous obstruction
Abdomen and Pelvis With IV Contrast: A powerful screening method for venous obstruction, can evaluate alternative pathology

US
Pelvis Transabdominal: A useful initial imaging study for NIVL evaluation and exclusion of alternative pathology. Limited by patient factors, can be mitigated. Moderate diagnostic value for clinically significant lesions
Duplex Doppler Lower Extremity: Can evaluate venous structures in leg. Useful for determining underlying source of suspected venous etiology. Less sensitive than CTV, especially for mild lesions. Can be supplemented with APG, MVOV
MRV
Abdomen and Pelvis With IV Contrast: A first - line imaging study for NIVL evaluation, can rule out proximal venous outflow obstruction
