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.
