An automated post-processing pipeline of TOF-MRA is proposed to separate intracranial and extracranial vessels, without the aid of T1w structural images. The post-processing uses nonlinear registration to produce ROIs in individual space. The pipeline was verified to provide clear MIP images of intracranial and extracranial vessels, respectively, which is useful in extra-intracranial bypass surgery.
