Time-Resolved Response of Cerebral Stiffness to Hypercapnia in Humans
2020
Abstract Cerebral blood flow, cerebral stiffness (CS) and intracranial pressure are tightly linked variables of cerebrovascular reactivity and cerebral autoregulation. Transtemporal ultrasound time-harmonic elastography was used for rapid measurement of CS changes in 10 volunteers before, during and after administration of a gas mixture of 95% O2 and 5% CO2 (carbogen). Within the first 2.2 ± 2.0 min of carbogen breathing, shear wave speed determined as a surrogate parameter of CS increased from 1.57 ± 0.04 to 1.66 ± 0.05 m/s (p
