A 3D TSE using Cartesian acquisition with spiral profile reordering (CASPR) in combination with pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) was developed to improve the robustness of ASL measured perfusion to increased B0 inhomogeneities in GBM patients. Previous results showed high intrasession reliability of this method in GBM patients. In this study, we compared the 3D TSE-CASPR measured perfusion with clinically available 3D GraSE at 3T. With 24 GBM imaging sessions, the results showed that 3D pCASL with TSE-CASPR is more robust to B0 inhomogeneities and has higher intrasession reliability than the clinical sequence, 3D pCASL with GraSE at 3T.
