To evaluate the changes of regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) in artificial hypertensive state, we investigated vascular responses to changes of arterial carbon dioxide tension (PC02) and blood pressure by means of positron emission tomography (PET). The subjects were eight brain tumors which were h
Measurements of tumor blood flow (TBF) are important for understanding tumor physiology and can be valuable in selecting and evaluating therapies. Brain tumors typically present reduced blood flows compared to normal brain tissue. This study shows that the arterial spin labeling (ASL) technique can
