Recently 3D volumetric non contrast time-resolved MRA technique termed Contrast inherent inflow enhanced multi phase angiography combining multiple phase FAIR (CINEMA-FAIR) was proposed. CINEMA technique combines ASL with 3D segmented T1 weighted gradient echo sequence. FAIR preparation scheme with the Look-Locker sampling was used for spin tagging in this study. This study assessed the utility of CINEMA-FAIR as a diagnostic tool for intracranial AVF and AVM compared with contrast-enhanced dynamic MR angiography (CE-dMRA). CINEMA-FAIR could show comparable result from many view points, but was inferior to CE-dMRA in depicting drainage vein of AVM.
