Reliability of quantitative transverse relaxation time mapping with $${\text{T}}_{{2}}$$ T 2 -prepared whole brain pCASL

Abstract Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is increasingly applied for cerebral blood flow mapping, but $${\text{T}}_{{2}}$$ T 2 relaxation of the ASL signal magnetization is often ignored, although it may be clinically relevant. To investigate the extent, to which quantitative $${\text{T}}_{{2}}$$ T 2 v...
