title: Study of the cerebral blood flow in patients with brain lesions under anesthesia.
abstract: The influence of thiopental (Pentothal) on cerebral blood flow was studied by means of ten scintillationcounters in man on occasion of a carotid angiography. The patients received a basic anesthesia with 30% oxygen, 70% nitrous oxide and pancuronium bromide. When the anesthesia was stabilised, thiopental was given (4 mg/kg). The influence of barbiturates on autoregulation is discussed.
