Migraine associated cerebral hyperperfusion with arterial spin-labeled MR imaging.
We present a case series demonstrating abnormal regional cerebral hyperperfusion associated with migraine headache using arterial spin-labeling (ASL). In 3 of 11 patients, regional cortical hyperperfusion was demonstrated during a headache episode that corresponded to previous aura symptoms.
