What the trial team says

Neurovascular uncoupling (NVU) represents a major source of potential bias for the identification of eloquent brain regions through activation procedures in blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Same region shows proper pattern in glucose metabolism in victiny of brain lesions, investigated with positron emitted tomography with radiolabeled glucose (PET-FDG) This research project aims at investigating the mechanisms of NVU by using a multimodal noninvasive imaging approach in neurosurgical patients.
