Abstract:
The body of work presented herein describes the development a new technique for the quantification of cerebral perfusion, termed bolus-tracking arterial spin labeling (btASL). The technique uses a novel non-compartmental model of cerebral perfusion in combination with ASL magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) experiments to quantify the changes in the perfusion state of the rat brain under the following conditions: increased neural activity, normal ageing and methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) administration.
