Abstract
The "color-spot" is a new Doppler sign, particularly suitable for identifying small hepatic arterio-venous malformations (HAVMs). The diagnosis of HAVMs in Hereditary Haemorragic Teleangectasia can be realibly made using merely intra-hepatic parameters and does not require evidence of extra-hepatic abnormalities.
