Comparison of CBF Measured with Combined Velocity-Selective Arterial Spin-Labeling and Pulsed Arterial Spin-Labeling to Blood Flow Patterns Assessed by Conventional Angiography in Pediatric Moyamoya [FUNCTIONAL]

CONCLUSIONS: Velocity-selective arterial spin-labeling offers a powerful approach to image perfusion in pediatric moyamoya due to transit delay insensitivity. Coupled with pulsed arterial spin-labeling for transit delay information, a volumetric MR imaging approach capturing key DSA information is introduced.
