[Abstract] To know the exact cerebral perfusion territory supplied by individual cerebral artery is of great significance to the diagnosis and treatment of many cerebrovascular diseases. On the basis of arterial spin labeling MRI techniques, territorial arterial spin labeling (t-ASL) using different technology methods to selectively label individual cerebral artery and then to obtain the cerebral perfusion territories mapping. Besides, since t-ASL has the advantages of no contrast agents and non-ionizing radiation, it has wide application foreground. This review provides an overview of the development and different technical principles of territorial ASL techniques, and summarizes its clinical applications.
