Using ASL to Measure Perfusion Changes in an Individual: Task-Based ASL and Beyond
View through CrossRef
Arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI measurements of perfusion provide a flexible and unique way to study the brain’s physiology and function. They enable experimental designs in neuroimaging that can complement widely used blood oxygen level dependent functional MRI (BOLD fMRI) experiments, or even enable experiments not possible with BOLD fMRI. This chapter explores ways in which ASL can be used to detect changes in perfusion in an individual, including those that involve stimulation of neuronal activity or pharmacological intervention.
