abstract = {Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI)-based technique using labeled blood-water of
the brain-feeding arteries as an endogenous tracer to derive
information about brain perfusion. It enables the assessment
of cerebral blood flow (CBF).This review aims to provide a
methodological and technical overview of ASL techniques, and
to give examples of clinical use cases for various diseases
affecting the central nervous system (CNS). There is a
special focus on recent developments including
super-selective ASL (ssASL) and time-resolved ASL-based
magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and on diseases
commonly not leading to characteristic alterations on
conventional structural MRI (e. g., concussion or
migraine).ASL-derived CBF may represent a clinically
relevant parameter in various pathologies such as
cerebrovascular diseases, neoplasms, or neurodegenerative
diseases. Furthermore, ASL has also been used to investigate
CBF in mild traumatic brain injury or migraine, potentially
leading to the establishment of imaging-based biomarkers.
Recent advances made possible the acquisition of ssASL by
selective labeling of single brain-feeding arteries,
enabling spatial perfusion territory mapping dependent on
blood flow of a specific preselected artery. Furthermore,
ASL-based MRA has been introduced, providing time-resolved
delineation of single intracranial vessels.Perfusion imaging
by ASL has shown promise in various diseases of the CNS.
Given that ASL does not require intravenous administration
of a gadolinium-based contrast agent, it may be of
particular interest for investigations in pediatric cohorts,
patients with impaired kidney function, patients with
relevant allergies, or patients that undergo serial MRI for
clinical indications such as disease monitoring.· ASL is an
MRI technique that uses labeled blood-water as an endogenous
tracer for brain perfusion imaging.. · It allows the
assessment of CBF without the need for administration of a
gadolinium-based contrast agent.. · CBF quantification by
ASL has been used in several pathologies including brain
tumors or neurodegenerative diseases.. · Vessel-selective
ASL methods can provide brain perfusion territory mapping in
cerebrovascular diseases.. · ASL may be of particular
interest in patient cohorts with caveats concerning
gadolinium administration..},
