A Beginner's Guide to Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) Image Processing [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Radiology, 2022
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive and cost-effective MRI technique for brain perfusion measurements. While it has developed into a robust technique for scientific and clinical use, its image processing can still be daunting.

Noninvasive Renal Perfusion Measurement Using Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) MRI: Basic Concept [PDF]

open access: yesMethods in Molecular Biology, 2021
AbstractThe kidney is a complex organ involved in the excretion of metabolic products as well as the regulation of body fluids, osmolarity, and homeostatic status. These functions are influenced in large part by alterations in the regional distribution of blood flow between the renal cortex and medulla. Renal perfusion is therefore a key determinant of

Renal Blood Flow Using Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) MRI: Experimental Protocol and Principles [PDF]

open access: yesMethods in Molecular Biology, 2021
AbstractA noninvasive, robust, and reproducible method to measure renal perfusion is important to understand the physiology of kidney. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI technique labels the endogenous blood water as freely diffusible tracers to measure perfusion quantitatively without relying on exogenous contrast agent.

VESPA ASL: VElocity and SPAtially Selective Arterial Spin Labeling [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2022
PurposeSpatially selective arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion MRI is sensitive to arterial transit times (ATT) that can result in inaccurate perfusion quantification when ATTs are long. Velocity‐selective ASL is robust to this effect because blood is labeled within the imaging region, allowing immediate label delivery.

ASL-BIDS, the brain imaging data structure extension for arterial spin labeling

open access: yesScientific Data, 2022
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive MRI technique that allows for quantitative measurement of cerebral perfusion. Incomplete or inaccurate reporting of acquisition parameters complicates quantification, analysis, and sharing of ASL data ...

Turbo ASL: Arterial spin labeling with higher SNR and temporal resolution [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2000
A modified pulsed arterial spin labeling (ASL) technique is introduced here that has both higher temporal resolution and higher SNR per unit time than existing ASL techniques. In this technique, the time TI between the application of the tag and image acquisition is longer than the repetition time TR, allowing for the use of greatly reduced TR values ...

Specificities of arterial spin labeling (ASL) abnormalities in acute seizure

open access: yesJournal of Neuroradiology, 2020
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive tool measuring cerebral blood flow (CBF) and is useful to assess acute neurological deficit. While acute stroke presents as hypoperfused vascular territory, epileptic activity causes cortical hyperperfusion. Other neurological conditions exhibit hyperperfusion, like migraine or secondary "luxury perfusion"

Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) fMRI: Advantages, Theoretical Constrains and Experimental Challenges in Neurosciences [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biomedical Imaging, 2012
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is a well-established correlate of brain function and therefore an essential parameter for studying the brain at both normal and diseased states.

Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar Syndrome With Higher Brain Dysfunction in Which Arterial Spin Labeling Revealed Abnormal Cerebral Blood Flow: A Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Treatment for hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome (HHS) was initiated for a transferred unconscious patient. Aphasia and agnosia remained even after metabolic improvement.

Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion: Techniques and clinical use

open access: yesDiagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2013
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion is a MRI technique to quantify tissue blood flow. ASL is a non-invasive technique that labels the protons in the arterial blood by radiofrequency pulses, without the exogenous injection of contrast media. This article has three goals: 1) present the principles of ASL perfusion, the types of labeling and the ways ...
