In recent years, the incidence of cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) is increasing, which seriously endangers human health. The study on hemodynamics of cerebrovascular disease can help us to understand, prevent, and treat the disease. As one of the important parameters of human cerebral hemodynamics and tissue metabolism, OEF (oxygen extraction fraction) is of great value in central nervous system diseases. The use of BOLD (blood oxygen level dependent) effect offers the possibility to study cerebral hemodynamic and metabolic characteristics by MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) measurements. Therefore, this paper reviews the hemodynamic parameters of brain tissue, discusses the principles and methods of quantitative BOLD-based MRI measurements of OEF, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
