Background and purposeCarotid-cavernous fistulas (CCF), dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) and spinal arteriovenous fistula (SAVF) are rare vascular malformations that cause arteriovenous shunting. Detecting the shunt point and flow direction is necessary for shunt disease diagnosis and treatment. Hence, we propose a new shunt disease diagnostic way with four dimensional-flow magnetic resonance imaging (4D-flow MRI). Material and methodsThe 4D-flow MRI and the DSA (digital subtraction angiograp...
