Intracranial vasculature features extracted from TOF images have similar behaviors as ASL CBF over multiple time points on patients undergoing carotid revascularization.
Figure 1. TOF MRA images, iCafe tracing results and CBF maps of an example case. TP1, TP2 and TP3 correspond to prior to carotid revascularization surgery, within 48 hours after surgery and 6 months after surgery, respectively.
