## TL;DR

This paper critically discusses the recommended arterial spin labeling quantification methods for ASL in dementia, urging for more careful application and validation to ensure accurate perfusion measurement.

## Contribution

It highlights the need for cautious implementation of ASL quantification approaches recommended by major groups, emphasizing potential pitfalls and areas for improvement.

## Key findings

- Current ASL quantification methods may have limitations in dementia studies
- The paper advocates for more rigorous validation of ASL techniques
- It calls for standardized protocols to improve reliability

## Abstract

A petition for more careful considerations towards the usage of a quantification approach for ASL which has been recommended by the ISMRM perfusion study group and the European consortium for ASL in dementia.
