## Abstract Quantitative determination of cerebral blood volume (CBV) is important for understanding brain physiology and pathophysiology. In this work, a novel approach is presented for accurate measurement of absolute CBV (aCBV) using vascularβspaceβoccupancy (VASO) MRI, a bloodβnulling pulse seq

## Purpose: To evaluate reproducibility of total cerebral blood flow (cbf) measurements with phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (pcmri). ## Materials and methods: We repeated total cbf measurements in 15 healthy volunteers with and without cardiac triggering, and with and without repositio
## Abstract The use of perfluorochemical (PFC) emulsions to study the myocardial circulation by means of ^19^F NMR requires that the biodistribution of the PFC be known. The authors tested the hypothesis that PFC particles remain within the myocardial vascular space by infusing rats with both a PFC
## 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
## Abstract We have noninvasively produced lowβresolution, quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance images of cerebral blood flow in 2βml voxels in eight cats. Typical signalβtoβnoise of 4 to 1 was obtained in cerebral voxels in 16.5βs epochs. Mean flow during normocapnia (p~a~CO~2~ = 39 Β± 4 mm Hg)
## Abstract A stimulated echo sequence was used to obtain ^19^F NMR spectra from within a 4βml voxel in a cat brain. The time dependence of the ^19^F NMR signal from an inert gas (CHF~3~) was used to calculate the blood flow in the voxel. The position of the voxel was selected using a ^1^H MR image
