Brain MRI scan. T2-weighted FLAIR (A) and DWI (B) sequences of brain MRI scans reveal abnormal white matter signals in bilateral corona radiata areas. SWI (C) and MRV (D) sequences of brain MRI scans reveal extensive tortuous dilatation of intracranial veins. After DAVF embolization, T2-weighted FLAIR (E) and DWI (F) brain MRI scans show improvement in white matter lesions. SWI (G) and MRV (H) sequences of brain MRI show a significant reduction in multiple vascular shadows on the brain surface and subcortex. Abbreviations: MRI = magnetic resonance imaging; FLAIR = fluid attenuation inversion recovery; DWI = diffusion-weighted imaging; SWI = susceptibility-weighted imaging; MRV = magnetic resonance venography; DAVF = dural arteriovenous fistula
