The Open Source Initiative for Perfusion Imaging (OSIPI): ASL Pipeline inventory

As a part of the Open Source Initiative for Perfusion Imaging (OSIPI), we have created an inventory of software for automated processing of Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) perfusion MRI data. We contacted the ASL community through different channels, inviting software developers to list their pipelines by completing a questionnaire covering different aspects and features of a desired pipeline. We received inputs from 18 developers and have summarized the main characteristics of their pipelines based on the information they provided. We expect that this inventory will facilitate ASL-related research, reduce duplicate development, and enable translation of ASL to clinical practice.
