Blood Flow in the Brain and Metabolism

Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF): CBF is defined as the amount of blood that flows through brain tissue per unit mass per unit of time and is often measured in milliliter’s (ml) of blood. Single-photon outflow registered tomography (SPECT), positron discharge tomography (PET), X-ray with contrast agents, and blood vessel turn marking (ASL) X-ray are direct methods for determining CBF in human individuals.

Four main mechanisms regulate CBF:

  • automatic pressure regulation
  • Chemical regulation (by arterial pCO2 and pO2)
  • Metabolic regulation, sometimes known as "metabolic auto regulation "
  • Neural command
