Magnetic Resonance Mapping of Cerebrovascular Reserve: Steal Phenomena in Normal and Abnormal Brain

Blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging enables non-invasive spatial mapping of changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF). By applying a vasodilatory stimulus (such as inhaled CO2) during BOLD MR imaging, one can measure cerebral vasodilatory capacity. "Cerebrovascular re...
