Quantitative Cerebral Perfusion Imaging in Children and Young Adults with Moyamoya Disease: Comparison of Arterial Spin-Labeling-MRI and H2[15O]-PET

Abstract

In children and young adults with Moyamoya disease, quantitative evaluation of CBF is possible with the use of arterial spin-labeling-MR imaging without ionizing radiation or contrast injection with a good correlation to H2[(15)O]-PET after cerebellar normalization.
