A 3D multi-TI arterial spin-labeling (mTI-ASL) protocol
had been applied to measure the blood perfusion of
patients with brain tumor. This study present the
feasibility of mTI-ASL for brain tumors in the clinical
environment and compare it with dynamic-susceptibility
contrast-enhanced perfusion imaging (DSC) to test the
hypothesis whether mTI-ASL could substitute DSC in brain
tumor cases. The results shows the performances of
mTI-ASL in measuring CBF and timing information of blood
flow were consistent with DSC. Thus, the perfusion
information and the results obtained by dynamic
contrast-enhanced technique could be obtained with only
one single contrast agent injection.
