Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are divided into sporadic and familial forms. For clinical imaging, T2-weighted gradient-echo sequences have been shown to be more sensitive than conventional sequences. Recently more advanced imaging techniques such as high-field and susceptibility-weighted MR imaging have been employed for the evaluation of CCMs. Furthermore, diffusion tensor imaging and functional MR imaging have been applied to the preoperative and intraoperative management of these lesions. In this paper, the authors attempt to provide a concise review of the emerging imaging methods used in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CCMs.
脑海绵状血管畸形（CCMs）分为散发性和家族性两种形式。在临床成像中，T2 加权梯度回波序列比常规序列更敏感。最近，更先进的成像技术，如高场和磁化率加权磁共振成像，已被用于 CCMs 的评估。此外，弥散张量成像和功能磁共振成像已应用于这些病变的术前和术中管理。本文作者试图对用于 CCMs 临床诊断和治疗的新兴成像方法进行简要综述。
