The impact of off-resonance compensation and cardiac triggering on vessel- selective ASL labeling efficiency and image quality was investigated. A strategy to calculate individual vessel’s perfusion fraction maps based on measurements of vessel-selective labeling efficiency is also presented. This work serves as a practical guideline for acquiring high quality, quantitative perfusion fraction maps with super-selective pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling.
