Effects of inhaled stable xenon on cerebral blood flow velocity.

The effects of inhaled stable xenon gas on cerebral blood flow were studied with 23 transcranial Doppler examinations performed in 13 normal volunteers while breathing, 25, 30, or 35% xenon for 5 min. Doppler velocities from the middle cerebral artery rose significantly during inhalation in 85% of subjects and 78% of studies and decreased significantly in 15% of subjects and 17% of studies. The...

Xenon-enhanced CT of the brain: effect of flow activation on derived cerebral blood flow measurements.

The errors associated with derivation of cerebral blood flow values by the xenon-enhanced CT method have been evaluated through computer simulations as a function of flow-activation patterns and different scanning protocols. The results of this study indicate that actual flow activation during inhalation increases the derived flow values in a systematic way. Compared with the errors introduced ...

Local cerebral blood flow measured by CT after stable xenon inhalation.

A safe, practical, clinically applicable, noninvasive method for measuring local cerebral blood flow (LCBF) using inert xenon (Xes) and a 60 sec CT scanner has been developed in the baboon. Direct measurement of expired Xes concentration after short inhalation (4--7 min) of 40% Xes and the use of computer-programmed autoradiographic formulas allow accurate, reproducible measurements of LCBF usi...

Comparison of xenon-enhanced CT with ultrafast CT for measurement of regional cerebral blood flow.

PURPOSE To compare an ultrafast CT method for estimating regional cerebral blood flow with a more commonly used xenon-enhanced CT method. METHODS Xenon CT and ultrafast CT were used to estimate regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in 12 healthy beagle dogs. Measurements were obtained for left and right hemisphere, cortical gray matter, basal ganglia, and deep white matter. The ability of each ...

Xenon Inhalation on Whole-Brain Blood Flow and Metabolism in Awake and Fentanyl-Anesthetized Monkeys

Background and Purpose: Despite the documented diagnostic value of local cerebral blood flow maps by xenon-enhanced computed tomography, reports of cerebral blood flow activation by inhaled 33% Xe raised concerns about the method's safety and accuracy. We evaluated the effect of 33% Xe inhalation on cerebral blood flow and cerebral metabolic rates for oxygen and glucose in four awake and six fe...

Xenon enhanced CT for analysis of cerebral integrity, perfusion, and blood flow.

Enhancement of the brain substance for CT evaluation using inhaled Xenon is confirmed. This technique was applied to the study of the normal and the embolized adolescent baboon. Healthy cerebral tissue enhances symmetrically, while abnormal areas show significantly diminished enhancement. At maximal enhancement, an indication of gross comparative cerebral perfusion to obtained. By obtaining ser...
