CVI: In the brain, the cavum veli interpositi (CVI) is a condition in which the cistern of the velum interpositum becomes dilated. The phenomenon usually occurs in newborns. This is often a normal variation, and A CVI is a relatively frequent finding on imaging of infants and young children seen in ~25% (range 18-34%) of infants younger than 2 years. In most cases this space closes as the individual ages.
