The following pictures illustrate a typical ASL analysis:

1. Incoming arterial blood to the brain is "tagged" by a radiofrequency pulse.
2. A **Tag Image** is acquired that includes brain tissue. This can be a single slice, or a volume encompassing the entire brain.

3. Repeat the experiment without tagging any incoming arterial blood.
4. Acquire a **Control Image** in the same area as the previous Tag Image.
