## Abstract ## Purpose: To investigate arterial spin labeling (ASL) methods for improved brain perfusion mapping. Previously, pseudo‐continuous ASL (pCASL) was developed to overcome limitations inherent with conventional continuous ASL (CASL), but the control scan (null pulse) in the original meth

## Abstract A fast, two‐coil, pseudo‐continuous labeling scheme is presented. This new scheme permits the collection of a multislice subtraction pair in <3 s, depending on the subject's arterial transit times. The method consists of acquiring both control and tag images immediately after a labeling
Under ideal conditions, continuous arterial spin labeling (ASL) techniques are higher in SNR than pulsed ASL techniques by a factor of e. Presented here is a direct theoretical and experimental comparison of continuous ASL and pulsed ASL, using versions of both that are amenable to multislice imagin
