  1. Arterial Spin-labelled MRI Analyses to Advance Adolescent Bipolar Disorder Research and Clinical Applications

    Luciw, Nicholas J2022

    Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is foundational to brain function in health and disease. Through three distinct analyses, the aim of this thesis is to extend current understanding of CBF in adolescent bipolar disorder and to enable future understanding of CBF in other brain diseases. CBF measurement can …

  3. Mapping cerebral blood flow with speckle contrast optical spectroscopy

    Kim, Byungchan2027

    Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is a critical component of cerebral hemodynamics, yet the existing optical neuroimaging modalities to measure CBF do not have sufficient signal-to-noise ratio. Speckle contrast optical spectroscopy (SCOS) has been previously considered as an alternative approach to use …

  6. Measurement of Cerebral Blood Flow Using Arterial Spin Labeling Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Aslan, Sina2011

    Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) reflects the amount of blood perfusion in the brain, often defined as ml of blood per 100 gram of brain per minute. CBF is an important measure in understanding brain physiology and pathophysiology. Thus, it is important to establish a robust method suitable for …
