Moyamoya disease is characterized by Moyamoya vessels
near the stenosis regions induced by progressive
stenosis of the internal carotid artery, cerebral
artery. CVR and OEF are critical indicators of the
severity in Moyamoya disease. In this research, blood
oxygenation level dependence (BOLD) functional Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (fMRI) of carbogen inhalation and hand
grasping are adapted as challenge tasks to probe CVR and
OEF in Moyamoya disease.
