This study found that the hyperoxia method for measuring brain activity, specifically cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO(2)), showed lower reproducibility than the hypercapnia approach. This suggests limitations in using hyperoxia for precise neuroimaging during cognitive tasks.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Physiology
  • Medical Physics

Background:

  • Arterial spin labelling (ASL) enables simultaneous measurement of BOLD and CBF responses.
  • Hypercapnia or hyperoxia calibration allows quantification of CMRO(2) changes.
  • Reproducibility of ASL-derived parameters is crucial for reliable neuroimaging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To test the reproducibility of CMRO(2) measurements using the hyperoxia approach during a cognitive Stroop task.
  • To compare the reproducibility of the hyperoxia method with the hypercapnia approach.
  • To investigate the reproducibility of neurovascular coupling parameters in different brain regions.

Main Methods:

  • Simultaneous CBF and BOLD signals were acquired using a QUIPSSII sequence at 3 T.

  • Participants underwent two 3-minute hyperoxia periods and an 8-minute Stroop task.
  • Hyperoxia was administered via an open system, with end-tidal values sampled via nasal cannula, reaching average 60%.

    • Main Results:

    • Reduced reproducibility of calculated parameters was observed with the hyperoxia approach compared to hypercapnia.
    • The neurovascular coupling constant 'n' did not show improved reproducibility with hyperoxia.
    • Average DeltaCMRO(2) was 12% and neurovascular coupling constant 'n' was 2.5 across all brain areas.
    • A higher 'n' value was found in parietal and frontal areas compared to the primary motor cortex.

    Conclusions:

    • The hyperoxia approach demonstrates lower reproducibility for CMRO(2) measurements compared to hypercapnia, potentially due to smaller BOLD and CBF responses.
    • The cognitive Stroop task revealed regional differences in neurovascular coupling, with higher 'n' in frontal and parietal regions.
    • Further research is needed to optimize ASL techniques for robust CMRO(2) quantification during cognitive tasks.
