For the first time, the feasibility of measuring
vasoreactive changes in SCBF to a carbogen challenge in
healthy rats was shown. Different areas of the spinal
cord show different reactivity with a high degree of
reproducibility. These preliminary results highlight the
potential of the developed technique in the
investigation of the pathogenesis of neuroinflammatory
diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis.
