TEACHING POINTS

At the end of this exhibit, learner will be able to: 1. describe the typical brain findings in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia among pediatric population based on the different types of cerebral arterio-venous malformation (CAVM). 2. explain the use of different imaging modalities in diagnosing CAVM and their utilization in the treatment management.  

TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE

1. The diagnostic criteria of HHT in pediatric population and the associated genetic mutation related to HHT. 2. The role of brain MRI screening in the detection of CAVM in HHT patients. 3. The types of CAVM that are found in HHT pediatric population ranging from developmental venous anomaly, cavernoma, arterial venous fistula and arteriovenous malformation, demonstrated by different imaging modalities including MRI, CT and angiography. 4. The intracranial complication of HHT depicted on neuroimaging.
