Résumé
We present a case series highlighting a novel use of arterial spin labeling (ASL), a MRI perfusion technique, to evaluate both high- and low-flow peripheral vascular malformations (PVMs) across a range of anatomical locations. While the role of ASL in assessing intracranial vascular malformations is more established, there is limited evidence for PVMs. Our results provide preliminary evidence for the feasibility of ASL in imaging PVMs and its potential ability to distinguish between high- and low-flow PVMs. In addition, we demonstrate its ability to identify focal high blood flow, which may indicate the nidus in arteriovenous malformations. Together, these findings have important implications for patient management. We also outline the potential benefits and limitations of ASL in the imaging of PVMs, and provide justification for further validation of its diagnostic performance.
