Abstract
⺠3D pCASL sequences increased perfusion spatial SNR by a factor of 2. ⺠The addition of BS to 3D readouts increased perfusion temporal SNR by a factor of 3. ⺠2D EPI showed higher GM-to-WM CBF contrast ratio. ⺠Statistical power to detect functional activation was higher in 3D BS sequences. ⺠3D BS single-shot sequences appear as the preferable readout choice in pCASL fMRI.
