Specificity of Quantitative Functional Brain Mapping with Arterial Spin-Labeling for Preoperative Assessment [NEUROIMAGING PHYSICS/FUNCTIONAL NEUROIMAGING/CT AND MRI TECHNOLOGY]

CONCLUSIONS:
Our results confirm the specificity of functional ASL in targeting the regional neuronal excitability. Functional ASL could be considered as a valid supplementary technique to BOLD imaging for presurgical mapping when spatial accuracy is crucial for delineating eloquent cortex.
