Abstract Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is increasingly applied for cerebral blood flow mapping, but $${\text{T}}_{{2}}$$ T 2 relaxation of the ASL signal magnetization is often ignored, although it may be clinically relevant. To investigate the extent, to which quantitative $${\text{T}}_{{2}}$$ T 2 v...
