Pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling technique for measuring CBF dynamics with high temporal resolution.
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) can be measured noninvasively with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) by using arterial water as an endogenous perfusion tracer. However, the arterial spin labeling (ASL) techniques suffer from poor temporal resolution due to the need to wait for the exchange of labeled arterial spins with tissue spins to produce contrast. In this work, a new ASL technique is introduced,...
متن کاملSuperselective pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling.
A new technique for the imaging of flow territories of individual extra- and intracranial arteries is presented. The method is based on balanced pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling but employs additional time-varying gradients in between the radiofrequency pulses of the long labeling train. The direction of the additional gradient vector is perpendicular to the selected artery and its azimu...
متن کاملQuantifying CBF with arterial spin labeling.
The basic principles of measuring cerebral blood flow (CBF) using arterial spin labeling (ASL) are reviewed. The measurement is modeled by treating the ASL method as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) version of a microsphere study, rather than a diffusible tracer study. This approach, particularly when applied to pulsed ASL (PASL) experiments, clarifies that absolute calibration of CBF primari...
متن کاملVessel-encoded arterial spin-labeling using pseudocontinuous tagging.
A new signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) efficient method is introduced for the mapping of vascular territories based on pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling (ASL). A pseudocontinuous tagging pulse train is modified using additional transverse gradient pulses and phase cycling to place some arteries in a tag condition, while others passing through the same tagging plane are in a control condition. ...
متن کاملQuantitative basal CBF and CBF fMRI of rhesus monkeys using three-coil continuous arterial spin labeling.
A three-coil continuous arterial-spin-labeling technique with a separate neck labeling coil was implemented on a Siemens 3T Trio for quantitative cerebral blood flow (CBF) and CBF fMRI measurements in non-human primates (rhesus monkeys). The optimal labeling power was 2 W, labeling efficiency was 92+/-2%, and optimal post-labeling delay was 0.8 s. Gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) were seg...
