|July 25, 1980
Abstract:
The study involved quantitative measurement of arterial and venous oxygen saturation, oxygen extraction, blood flow, and oxygen consumption in specific areas of the brain. No regional differences in oxygen consumption were found in anesthetized cat brain, and the amount of oxygen available to all regions studied was more than 2.5 times the consumption throughout the brain.
