• The 4D-MR angiography based on super-selective pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling combined with CENTRA-keyhole and view-sharing (4D-S-PACK) enabled excellent vessel selectivity. • The 4D-S-PACK enabled the perfect identification of feeding arteries of brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM). • 4D-S-PACK could be a non-invasive clinical tool for assessing hemodynamics in brain AVMs.
