Cerebral blood flow (CBF) data were collected with arterial
spin labeled (ASL) perfusion MRI in a group of young, healthy subjects over two
sessions, scheduled a week apart. CBF and functional connectivity metrics were derived
from the CBF time series across four different resting conditions: ‘eyes open’,
‘eyes closed’, ‘fixation’ (eyes fixated on a cross), and ‘PVT’ (low-frequency
psychomotor vigilance task). Absolute
CBF was highly reproducible both within and across sessions. Results suggest
that ‘fixation’ is inferior to the other conditions tested for resting-state ASL
reproducibility.
