The proposed data-driven approach that does not require physiological monitoring during the BH MRI scan have a good agreement with the conventional method.
Fig.3 Image example from single patient. Left: FLAIR T2 image, middle: CVR maps from conventional BH, and the threshold was set to 0.35 for blood oxygen level dependent PSC. Right: CVR maps from the proposed method, and the threshold was set to t>3.45.
