  • a Target contouring on 4D-DSA was performed independently on Advanced Leksell GammaPlan Program by 2 physicians who were blinded to the MR images. In AVMs, the contoured volumes are smaller than those contoured on the basis of integrated stereotactic images. For DAVFs, the contouring on 4D-DSA was blocked; this outcome results in more prominent inconsistencies between volumes contoured on 4D-DSA and those of MR integrated stereotactic imaging.
