Imaging spreading depolarization in the brainstem
Within two minutes of global ischemia or focal stroke, a sudden loss of neuronal and glial membrane potential induces anoxic depolarization (AD) that propagates across gray matter of the cerebral hemispheres at 2-5 mm/min. It induces terminal neuronal damage, forming the initial ischemic core. In he...
