Recent literature has illuminated increasing diagnostic uses of arterial spin labeling (ASL). This MR technique obtains accurate and reliable CBF measurements non-invasively and can be performed multiple times during the same exam, unlike other perfusion techniques.

A wide variety of entities, including normal variants, pathological conditions, and technical errors can demonstrate abnormal CBF values.

This Educational Exhibit has three main purposes:

1. To classify the main abnormal ASL perfusion patterns in the pediatric brain.

2. To discuss the potential clinical significance of abnormal ASL values.

3. To discuss the utility of this technique in the pediatric clinical setting.
