Periprocedural Arterial Spin Labeling and Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast Perfusion in Detection of Cerebral Blood Flow in Patients With Acute Ischemic Syndrome [Clinical Sciences]

Conclusions—
ASL is less sensitive than DSC for detecting rCBF changes in patients with acute ischemic syndrome, particularly with respect to hyperperfusion after successful recanalization.
