Fig. 5

The effects of anesthetic agents on cerebral blood flow and metabolism. a The change in regional cerebral metabolic rates of glucose (rCMRglu) by anesthetic agents, calculated from [18F]FDG-dynamic PET. b The change in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) by anesthetic agents, determined using [125I]IMP. The values are expressed as ratio to values of conscious rats (mean ± SD, n = 6–7)
