BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Both the existence and clinical relevance of a steal phenomenon in brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) remains a matter of debate. This study aimed to assess perfusion in the brain adjacent to brain AVMs and to relate these to macrovascular blood flow in a single measurement.
