Overview

Case-based review demonstrates arterial spin labelling MRI utility in brain tumour grading and mimic differentiation, highlighting its value for treatment monitoring.

Key Points

To review the clinical role of arterial spin labelling perfusion MRI as a problem-solving tool in grading, diagnosing, and monitoring brain tumours and tumour-like lesions.
Reviewed representative clinical cases utilizing arterial spin labelling (ASL) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging.
Assessed cerebral blood flow alterations across intra-axial and extra-axial neoplasms alongside non-neoplastic mimics.
ASL perfusion measurements reliably differentiate true intracranial neoplasms from non-neoplastic mimics and assist in identifying tumour grade.
ASL provides non-invasive functional imaging to track tumour progression and assess responses to oncologic therapy over time.
