Inter-vendor reproducibility of pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling at 3 Tesla. [PDF]
PURPOSE:Prior to the implementation of arterial spin labeling (ASL) in clinical multi-center studies, it is important to establish its status quo inter-vendor reproducibility.

Opioid suppression of conditioned anticipatory brain responses to breathlessness [PDF]
© 2017 The Authors Opioid painkillers are a promising treatment for chronic breathlessness, but are associated with potentially fatal side effects. In the treatment of breathlessness, their mechanisms of action are unclear.

Non-contrast renal magnetic resonance imaging to assess perfusion and corticomedullary differentiation in health and chronic kidney disease [PDF]
AIMS Arterial spin labelling (ASL) MRI measures perfusion without administration of contrast agent. While ASL has been validated in animals and healthy volunteers (HVs), application to chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been limited. We investigated the

Cerebral vasoreactivity in response to a headof-bed position change is altered in patients with moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can impair cerebral vasoreactivity and is associated with an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease. Unfortunately, an easy-to-use, non-invasive, portable monitor of cerebral vasoreactivity does not exist. Therefore, we

Arterial Spin Labeling MRI in Carotid Stenosis: Arterial Transit Artifacts May Predict Symptoms.
BackgroundStenosis of the internal carotid artery has a higher risk for stroke. Many investigations have focused on structure and plaque composition as signs of plaque vulnerability, but few studies have analyzed hemodynamic changes in the brain as a ...

Selective Arterial Spin Labeling
Knowledge of the distribution of blood flowing from the heart to the brain-feeding arteries is important for the understanding and diagnosis of cerebrovascular diseases. Due to anatomical variations and anomalies within the cerebrovasculature, together with changes caused by various cerebrovascular diseases, there is high variability in the ...

Arterial Spin Labeling: Experiência Inicial, Indicações Clínicas e Dificuldades
O arterial spin labeling (ASL) é uma técnica de perfusão por ressonância magnética (RM) que usa os protões das moléculas de água do sangue arterial como marcador endógeno.
