Oxygen Transport To Tissue XXIII

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 510))

Abstract

Tissue viability and function are often manifest in hemodynamic signatures, because metabolism and vascular regulatory mechanisms modulate the concentration, oxygenation and flow characteristics of blood cells. Assessment of tissue viability and function from hemodynamic measures can be complicated however, by the interplay between vascular supply, tissue oxygen consumption and regulatory effects. It is therefore desirable to independently monitor hemoglobin concentration, oxygenation and flow. In this contribution we present diffuse optical measurements of hemoglobin concentration, oxygenation and flow during global modulations in rat brain, through the intact skull.
