Phase contrast magnetic resonance of the spinal cord preliminary results in spinal cord arterio-venous malformations.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Multiple intracranial aneurysms (MIAs) are associated with poorer outcomes after rupture than are single intracranial aneurysms (SIAs). Although the risk factors for intracranial aneurysm rupture have been widely investigated, few studies have focused on MIAs. Thus, the present study aimed to determine wheth...
