Cerebrovascular Resistance: The Basis of Cerebrovascular Reactivity

The cerebral vascular network regulates blood flow distribution by adjusting vessel diameters, and consequently resistance to flow, in response to metabolic demands (neurovascular coupling) and changes in perfusion pressure (autoregulation). Deliberate changes in carbon dioxide (CO2) partial pressur...
