Permeability of the blood brain barrier in relation to the development of hepatic encephalopathy was investigated in two animal models of acute hepatic failure, in one of which there was the potential for recovery (D-galactosamine-induced hepatitis). In both this and the hepatic devascularization mo

The role of changes in blood-brain barrier permeability in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy remains uncertain. To test the hypothesis that brain microvessel permeability is nonselectively increased in hepatic encephalopathy we measured the blood-brain barrier permeability-surface area prod
Cerebral blood flow, cerebral blood volume (CBV), and water permeability through blood-brain barrier are important hemodynamic parameters in brain physiology. Pulsed arterial spin labeling and vascular-space occupancy techniques have been used to measure regional cerebral blood flow and CBV, respect
