The present study used independent component analysis to examine resting brain networks in a large cohort (n=149) of subjects with arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion MRI data. Ten CBF networks were consistently identified across the whole and sub-datasets, including the default mode network, bilateral attention networks, primary and second visual networks, auditory network, ventral-medial prefrontal network, dorsal-medial prefrontal network, and two limbic networks. These networks well replicated the resting-state BOLD networks from a sub-group (n=81) and support the feasibility of using CBF connectivity to examine resting brain function.
