abstract：:Perfusion imaging with pulsed arterial spin labeling techniques, like flow-sensitive alternating inversion recovery (FAIR), may suffer from inflow of fresh, i.e., unlabeled, spins. Inflow of fresh spins is caused by the arrival of unlabeled spins in the image slice and can lead to underestimation of the perfusion if n...
