Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) noninvasive method, capable of measuring perfusion, i.e. blood flow, with blood as an intrinsic contrast. ASL measurements of cerebral perfusion are usually acquired at very low spatial resolution (> 60mm3 voxels), for several...

Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) measures the diffusion (i.e. random molecular motion) of water. Since the motion of water is inhibited by cellular membranes, dMRI provides insight into the microstructural characteristics of the tissue. However, distinguishing between small anatomical...
