In the current study, the feasibility of random
vessel-encoded ASL (rVE-ASL) was evaluated by comparison
with the standard vessel-encoded ASL (VE-ASL) in healthy
subjects as well as in ischemic stroke patients. Our
results showed the perfusion territory maps of rVE-ASL
were well matched with those of VE-ASL. The collaterals
detected by rVE-ASL were consistent with DSA in stroke
patients, suggesting the potential clinical utility of
rVE-ASL to characterize collateral circulation in
stroke.
