Magnetic resonance imaging studies have revealed distinct patterns of cortical atrophy and
hypoperfusion in patients with Alzheimer's disease. The relationship between these in vivo …

Purpose To develop fast multi‐slice apparent T1 (T1app) mapping for accurate cerebral
blood flow (CBF) quantification with arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI. Methods Fast multi …

Despite the potential to guide clinical management of spinal cord injury and disease,
noninvasive methods of monitoring perfusion status of the spinal cord clinically remain an …

With the increasing number of transgenic mouse models of human brain diseases, there is a
need for a sensitive method that allows assessing quantitative whole brain perfusion within …

Purpose Quantitative measure of blood flow provides important information regarding renal
function, nephropathies and viability of kidney transplantation. Therefore, a method that …

Purpose To investigate the influence of respiration on field maps for geometric distortion
correction derived from two rapidly acquired consecutive echo planar images. Methods …

Background To derive an adapted protocol at ultra high magnetic field for mouse kidney
perfusion measurements using pCASL in combination with three widely available fast …

Arterial hypertension is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. However, the management of
preexisting hypertension is still controversial in the treatment of acute stroke in hypertensive …

Background: Central arterial stiffness (CAS) is associated with elevated arterial blood
pressure (BP) and is likely associated with stiffening of cerebral artery walls, with attendant …

ABSTRACT 7 T arterial spin labeling (ASL) faces major challenges including the increased
specific absorption rate (SAR) and increased B0 and B1 inhomogeneity. This work …
