Quantitative Topography of the Hemodynamic-Oxidative Metabolic Interrelation by Multispot Measurement Approach in Rat Ischemia Models
We applied the multispot measurement approach for both laser Doppler (LD) and a microspectrophotometric method to measure local cerebral blood flow (1CBF) and local tissue hemoglobin oxygenation (IHbO2). We demonstrated that the current technology permits in vivo observation, allowing us to establish a close topographical relation between CBF and HbO2. We measured 1CBF by LD flowmetry and tissue HbO2 by a microspectrophotometric method at multiple corresponding locations using a “scanning” technique that employs a computer-controlled micromanipulator. CBF and HbO2 data from predefined locations were correlated to the topographical situation and then arranged in a three-dimensional (3D) imag…
A Scanning Technique to Measure Regional Cerebral Blood Flow and Oxyhemoglobin Level
OBJECTIVE: The application of a laser scanning technique to measure regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) and tissue hemoglobin oxygenation (HbO 2 ) using the rat closed cranial window preparation is described. METHODS: Twenty-nine male Wistar rats were used to consecutively measure local CBF by laser Doppler flowmetry and tissue HbO 2 by a microspectrophotometric method at multiple corresponding cortical locations. The scanning technique used a computer-controlled micromanipulator. Data from three experimental models are presented: the whisker stimulation model, the ischemia-reperfusion model, and the sinus-vein thrombosis model. Sequential changes in local CBF and HbO 2 data before, during, …
