Recent advancements in arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI have significantly improved our understanding of cerebral perfusion in neurodegenerative diseases. Traditionally, the focus has been on regional perfusion deficits corresponding to specific neural pathologies. However, this localized approach may overlook the influence of global cerebral blood flow alterations.

Background: Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are common forms of dementia, characterized by overlapping clinical symptoms. Functional neuroimaging can provide valuable information for precise diagnosis. Our objective was to explore cerebral perfusion alterations in DLB and AD, and to determine which perfusion parameters are helpful in distinguishing DLB and AD.

Background: Two post-processing methods of dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion-weighted imaging (DSC-PWI), arterial input function (AIF) and gamma-variate fitting (GVF), can both derive cerebral blood flow (CBF). Moreover, AIF can provide T2* and T1 leakage indicators. This study aimed to compare the consistency of normalized CBF between different post-processing methods of DSC-PWI and arterial spin labeling (ASL) in gliomas, and take the quantitative metrics percentage of signal recovery (PSR) as a reference to verify the value of T2* and T1 leakage indicators in characterizing leakage effect and evaluating the grading of gliomas.

Objective: Diagnosis of early onset dementia is critical for initiating management. Although structural MRI is an established procedure for dementia evaluation, early cases may be missed. Neurodegenerative diseases lead to reductions in glucose consumption and grey matter volume loss.

Background: Hyperperfusion syndrome (HPS) is one of the most serious complications after carotid artery stenting (CAS). Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a noninvasive method for assessing cerebral perfusion. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of ASL compared to that of SPECT in evaluating changes in intracranial blood flow during the perioperative period of CAS.
