## Abstract ## Purpose To obtain cerebral perfusion territories of the left, the right, and the posterior circulation in humans with high signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) and robust delineation. ## Materials and Methods Continuous arterial spin labeling (CASL) was implemented using a dedicated radio

## Abstract ## Purpose To demonstrate the use of a noninvasive arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI technique and evaluate vertebral artery (VA) territories in the brain. ## Materials and Methods Vessel‐encoded ASL was used to determine the territories of the left and right VAs in five healthy subje
## Abstract One of the advantages of arterial spin labeling (ASL) techniques over other techniques for measuring cerebral perfusion is that with ASL it is possible to achieve accurate quantification. This is particularly useful in the field of functional imaging, where accurate measurements of perf
## Abstract Before meaningful conclusions can be drawn from clinical measures of cerebral blood perfusion, the precision of the measurement must be determined and set in the context of inter‐ and intrasubject sources of variability. This work establishes the reproducibility of perfusion measurement
A two-compartment exchange model for perfusion quantification using arterial spin labeling (ASL) is presented, which corrects for the assumption that the capillary wall has infinite permeability to water. The model incorporates an extravascular and a blood compartment with the permeability surface a
A variety of magnetic resonance (MR) techniques have proved useful to quantify perfusion using endogenous water as a blood flow tracer. Assuming that water is a freely diffusable tracer, the model used for these techniques predicts that the quantitation of perfusion is based on three parameters, all
