We assessed clinical utilities of an ASL-based non-contrast 4D MRA (inflow enhanced inversion recovery (IFIR) 4D MRA) incorporated into routine MRI protocols for patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Non-contrast IFIR 4D MRA has a high spatial resolution almost equivalent to that of 3D TOF MRA and also can provide a higher temporal resolution than contrast-enhanced time-resolved MRA. Non-contrast IFIR 4D MRA was found to add hemodynamic information to 3D TOF MRA and can be an alternative to contrast-enhanced time-resolved MRA in evaluation of cerebral AVM.
