In this pilot project, we evaluated the effect of various readout schemes on specific ASL imaging metrics assessed by statistical 3D stereotactic surface projection, and applied to a pseudocontinuous labeling scheme that was conserved across all evaluated sequences. We conclude that descriptive statistical 3D mapping can offer insight into the performance of the five differing readout methods.
