title: Local cerebral blood flow after microwave exposure.
abstract: Experiments were performed which demonstrate that low power, pulsed microwave exposure induces a significant increase in local cerebral blood flow within the brain of the conscious rat. Previous studies purporting to examine changes in brain vascular permeability induced by microwave radiation must be re-evaluated in the light of these observed changes in blood flow.
