Abstract：Epilepsy is a brain dysfunction syndrome, which is caused by abnormal discharge of cerebral neurons. It has become a hot topic in the study of brain function in patients with epilepsy at present. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion is one of the advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technologies that can measure the cerebral blood flow quantitatively and noninvasively. It is able to reveal the cerebral hemodynamics in epilepsy patients and to provide a new theoretical basis for the pathophysiological mechanism of epilepsy. Recent advances in this field and its applications in clinic were reviewed in this article.
