In this study we investigate the effect of moderate
exercise on brain cerebral blood flow (CBF) using
arterial spin labeling (ASL) measurements. A dedicated
setup with an ergometer pedal platform in the
MR-BrainPET scanner was utilised. We demonstrated that
with this setup and by measuring with pseudo-continuous
arterial spin labeling (pCASL), the variations of CBF in
a healthy brain during exercise and following exercise
can be detected and evaluated.
