Adventures in Spin Labeling: Clinical Perfusion Imaging and the Path to Technical Innovation

Arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI has become a vital tool in clinical neuroimaging, enabling noninvasive assessment of cerebral perfusion across a range of conditions including stroke, vascular malformations, and brain tumors. With broader clinical adoption, its practical strengths — as well as important limitations — have become increasingly clear.
