Fig. 5 Scatterplot shows contrast rise time for each vascular
malformation. All high-flow vascular malformations show contrast rise time of
less than 20 sec. High-flow vascular malformations show shorter contrast rise
time than low-flow vascular malformations, with no overlap between the two.
Use of threshold contrast rise time of 30 sec would result in 100% (6/6)
sensitivity and 100% (10/10) specificity for differentiation of high-flow from
low-flow malformations. Note: contrast rise time = time between onset of
lesion enhancement and time of maximal percentage of enhancement above
baseline within 120 sec. Onset of lesion enhancement is defined as 0 sec.
Number next to
is number of patients at that enhancement time.
