  • Title: Dural Arterivenous Fistula at the Cavernous Sinus Diagnosed by Arterial Spin-labeled Imaging.
    Author: Yamamoto N, Yamamoto Y, Izumi Y, Kaji R.
    Journal: Intern Med; 2018 Apr 15; 57(8):1163-1166. PubMed ID: 29269649.
    Abstract:
    We herein report a case of dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) at the cavernous sinus that was diagnosed by arterial spin-labeled imaging (ASL). A 67-year-old woman was referred to our hospital due to double vision and bilateral conjunctival injection. Conventional magnetic resonance imaging findings were normal. However, abnormal hyperintense signals on ASL were detected. Furthermore, the abnormality disappeared after successful endovascular embolization. Although conventional digital subtraction angiography is the standard tool for diagnosing DAVF, we speculated that ASL might be useful to this end as well.
