Experimental alteration in the restricted permeability of the blood-brain barrier to polar, blood-borne molecules is often quantitated in the rat with use of ''C-sucrose or 3H-mannitol delivered as a test substance into the circulation. The underlying principle is to relate the quantity of saccharid

In this work we use a computer simulation to estimate the magnitude of improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio of PET functional brain mapping studies as a function of partition coefficient and permeability surface product for O-14, F-17, and O-15 labeled flow tracers. A model for signal-to-noise r

## Abstract We examine the use of arterial spin labeling (ASL) in normal brains of rats and humans to measure perfusion (__F__) and capillary permeability surface area product (__PS__) using a previously described twoβcompartment model. We investigate the experimental limits on __F__ and __PS__ qua
