The effect of spiral trajectory correction on pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling with high‐performance gradients on a compact 3T scanner

Abstract

Eddy currents can cause spiral trajectory deviation, which leads to deformation of the CBF map even in cases of low value S_max . The trajectory correction for spiral-readout-based pCASL produces more reliable results for perfusion imaging. These results suggest that pCASL is feasible on C3T with high-performance gradients.
