Both 4D magnetic resonance angiography (4D-MRA) and perfusion imaging have proved their value in the characterization of hemodynamic pathology in cerebrovascular disease, and their complementary information provides a complete picture of the hemodynamic status, which may prove especially important in conditions such as acute stroke. In this study, we propose the simultaneous acquisition of ASL-based perfusion image and MRA by combining a time-encoded ASL preparation with two sequential readout modules which have different spatial resolution: a high-resolved sequence for 4D MRA immediately followed by low resolution sequence for perfusion imaging.
