To Evaluate the Damage of Renal Function in CIAKI Rats at 3T: Using ASL and BOLD MRI

Figure 1

Representative coronal MR image (a) and the map (b) acquired using a BOLD sequence. Representative coronal MR image (c) the RBF map (d) acquired using an ASL sequence. The ROI putting on each kidney structure assembles the CO (1), OM (2), and IM (3). In (b) and (d), function parametric maps were overlaid on the top of the corresponding coronal MR image. Software automatically sums the number of voxels, MR signal intensity and calculate the RBF and values.
