Abstract
- The hemodynamic aspects of cerebral arteriovenous malformations(AVM) are currently the subject of increasing interest. Recently developed methods such as Doppler sonography, Xenon-enhanced Computed tomography Cerebral blood flow(CT CBF), single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT), and position emission tomography(PET) have promoted a more dynamic diagnostic and therapeutic approach to the complicated problem related to surgery of AVM. In this article, the literatures concerning the hemodynamics of cerebral AVM were reviewed.
