While morphological and molecular events during angiogenesis in brain glioma have been
extensively studied, the functional properties of tumour vessels have yet received little …

The authors previously provided evidence of synchrotron radiation computed tomography
(SRCT) efficacy for quantitative in vivo brain perfusion measurements using monochromatic …

The endothelium of the brain microvessels and the choroid plexus epithelium form highly
specialized cellular barriers referred to as blood-brain interfaces through which molecular …

Cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2) is a robust marker of brain health. It represents
the amount of oxygen consumed by the brain, and it has been proved to be more sensitive …

The capacity to monitor tissue oxygenation, both non-invasively and with high spatial and
temporal resolution, would be of significant value in the study of tissue responses to hypoxia …

The present study aimed to investigate the distribution pattern of plasma flow velocities in
brain capillaries. We tested the hypothesis that plasma flow velocities are heterogeneous in …

The effect of acute hypoxemia on erythrocyte perfusion rates in individual capillaries of the
rat cerebral cortex was studied by intravital video microscopy. The motion of erythrocytes in …

This paper will discuss the assumptions, strengths and weaknesses of both BOLD imaging
and NIR spectrophotometry with respect to monitoring tissue oxygenation. BOLD, or blood …

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether baseline partial pressure
of oxygen (PO 2), partial carbon dioxide pressure (PCO 2), and pH in brain tissue adjacent …

To challenge the concept of steal rendering the surrounding cortex ischemic, we examined
patterns of nutritive capillary flow in the vicinity of AVMs. With a spectrophotometer …
