Signal averaged laser Doppler measurements of activation–flow coupling in the rat forepaw somatosensory cortex

Regional alterations in cerebral blood flow (CBF) are widely used as a surrogate for neuronal function based on an intact coupling between changes in regional CBF and metabolism, activation–flow coupling (AFC). To further investigate parameters affecting AFC, we have implemented a rat model with ele...
