CTA Scan because i have had a AVM of the brain 2 years ago. could u please tell me what a CTA Scan thank you Lisa

I advise you to do a search on your pc............you obviously have one.

Well, I can't be sure from your description, but it sounds like a CT angiogram, which is when they inject a radiopaque dye into you (it shows up as white on x-rays) then do a CT scan and they can see a map of the blood vessels in whatever area they're looking at, which would allow them to take a look at your AVM.
