Modeling of cerebral oxygen transport based on in vivo microscopic imaging of microvascular network structure, blood flow and oxygenation

Oxygen is delivered to brain tissue by a dense network of microvessels, which actively control cerebral blood flow (CBF) through vasodilation and contraction in response to changing levels of neural activity. Understanding these network-level processes is immediately relevant for (1) interpretation...
