4D-MRA in combination with selective arterial spin labelling for functional characterization of arteriovenous malformations at 3 T
Introduction: Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) account for an increasingly recognized cause of death and long-term morbidity due to there lifelong risk of bleeding. MRI of AVMs should answer two major questions: first Spetzler-Martin-classification, which determines surgical outcome and second correct identification of feeding arteries and anatomic variants. It has recently been shown that 4D...

Background and Objective: Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation (CAVM) hemodynamic is disease condition, results changes in the flow and pressure level in cerebral blood vessels. Measuring flow and pressure without catheter intervention along the vessel is big challenge due to vessel bifurcations/complex bifurcations in Arteriovenous Malformation patients. The vessel geometry in CAVM patients are...
متن کاملBlood pressure changes in feeders to cerebral arteriovenous malformations during therapeutic embolization.
We recorded blood pressures in feeding arteries of cerebral arteriovenous malformations with microcatheters before, during, and after embolization in awake patients. Our embolization results corroborate reports of intraoperative measurements that show an immediate increase in blood pressure after ligation. Demonstration of abrupt hemodynamic changes gives additional credence to the theory of no...

Stroke is the second most common cause of death and major cause of disability worldwide. Approx. 20% of cerebral strokes are caused by hemorrhages due to rupture of cerebral vascular diseases like aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations. In case of an early diagnosed cerebral vascular disease an exact knowledge of the individual anatomy and hemodynamic situation is needed for an improved ratin...
متن کاملArterial spin labeling perfusion-weighted MRI for long-term follow-up of a cerebral arteriovenous malformation after stereotactic radiosurgery
We present a longitudinal series of arterial spin-labeling magnetic resonance imaging (ASL-MRI) in a patient with cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) treated by stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Pretreatment ASL-MRI showed high signal intensity in both the nidus and draining veins, and the latter signal abnormality gradually moved proximally by 14 months after SRS. At 24 months, the sign...
