In this pilot project, we evaluated the effect of various readout schemes on
specific ASL imaging metrics assessed by statistical 3D stereotactic surface projection, and applied to
a pseudocontinuous labeling scheme that was conserved across all evaluated
sequences.
We conclude that descriptive
statistical 3D mapping can offer insight into the performance of the five differing
readout methods.
