Abstract

Xenon enhanced computed tomography with a fast scanning mode and interscan table incrementation was used to derive local cerebral blood llow in a nonhuman primate 19 days following infarction. The in vivo autoradiographic methodology was used to derive blood flow in normal and diseased tissue at four different brain levels (slices) during a single inhalation study.
