ABSTRACT
We present a novel use of arterial spin labelling (ASL), a MRI perfusion technique, to assess a high-flow, peripheral vascular malformation (PVM), specifically a large arteriovenous malformation in the left forearm of a 20-year-old female. While there has been experience with ASL in the assessment of intracranial vascular malformations, there has been no known use of ASL in the evaluation of PVMs. We also discuss the potential benefits and limitations of ASL in the imaging of PVMs. The promising results from this case warrant further research on ASL in the investigation of PVMs.
