Quantitative measurements of regional cerebral blood volume using MRI in rats: Effects of arterial carbon dioxide tension and mannitol
Abstract
A three-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted sequence was used to acquire high spatial resolution whole brain images in rats before and after the injection of an intravascular contrast agent. These T1-weighted images were used to estimate regional cerebral blood volume (rCBV) as a percentage of blood volume in each voxel. Ventilation was manipulated to investigate the effects of altered arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) on rCBV. In addition, …
