## Abstract Imaging of activated brain areas based on changes of blood deoxyhemoglobin levels is now possible with MRI. Acetazolamide (ACZ) increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) without changing cerebral oxygen consumption; this results in signal changes observed in gradient echo MR images from the a
Retinal hypoxia is hypothesized to initiate angiogenesis, a leading cause of blindness in developed countries. Attempts to test this hypothesis suffer from the need to use highly invasive oxygen electrodes. In this communication, noninvasive and quantitative mapping of ocular oxygenation using magne
