Abstract:
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare vascular malformations of the lung. Although most patients are asymptomatic, AVMs can bleed and result in haemoptysis and haemothorax. We describes a case of pulmonary AVMs in a patient with Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome with 3-D contrast-enhanced MR angiography. Magnetic resonance angiography provided accurately and non-invasively the number and size of the feeding arteries and draining veins.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
