The purpose of this study was to investigate the
similarity and reliability of resting brain networks
between BOLD and ASL based rs-fMRI. A 2x2x2 factorial
design was applied where 10 subjects underwent repeated
BOLD and ASL rs-fMRI scans on two occasions on two
separate MRI scanners respectively. While BOLD-networks
showed excellent test-retest-reliability across sessions
and scanners in their spatial pattern, ASL-networks
showed reduced yet still adequate repeatability as well
as highly reproducible network CBF measurements. The
combination of ASL and -BOLD rs-fMRI provides a powerful
tool to fully characterize the spatiotemporal and
quantitative properties of resting brain networks.
