Cortical Inactivation by Cooling in Small Animals
Reversible inactivation of the cortex by surface cooling is a powerful method for studying the function of a particular area. Implanted cooling cryoloops have been used to study the role of individual cortical areas in auditory processing of awake-behaving cats. Cryoloops have also been used in rodents for reversible inactivation of the cortex, but recently there has been a concern that the cry...
متن کاملReal-time photoacoustic tomography of cortical hemodynamics in small animals.
For the first time, the hemodynamics within the entire cerebral cortex of a mouse were studied by using photoacoustic tomography (PAT) in real time. The PAT system, based on a 512-element full-ring ultrasound array, received photoacoustic signals primarily from a slice of 2-mm thickness. This system can provide high-resolution brain vasculature images. We also monitored the fast wash-in process...
متن کاملHypoadrenocorticism in small animals.
The diagnosis and treatment of hypoadrenocorticism can be one of the greatest challenges faced by veterinary practitioners, as Addison's disease may have many faces and many presentations. Although the disease is most often diagnosed in dogs, cats may also suffer from Addison's disease. The practitioner must have a high index of suspicion to make a diagnosis of hypoadrenocorticism. This index o...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal parameters of cortical inactivation by GABA.
Inactivation by GABA is a powerful tool for studying the function of specific cortical regions. It is especially useful in electrophysiology, because inactivation is reversible within short time periods, and because the extent of the inactivated region can be accurately controlled. Iontophoresis of GABA inactivates neurons up to 300 microm around the micropipette. Pressure injection of GABA ina...
متن کاملBarium Peritonitis in Small Animals
Barium peritonitis is extremely rare, but is difficult to treat and may be life-threatening. Barium suspension leakage from the gastrointestinal tract into the abdominal cavity has a time-dependent and synergistically deleterious effect in patients who have generalized bacterial peritonitis. The severity of barium peritonitis is dependent on the quantity of barium in the abdominal cavity. Bariu...
