title: Application of the 133Xe bolus technique for measuring the cerebral blood flow in young and adults rats.
abstract: For measuring the cerebral blood flow (CBF) in young (5 weeks old) and adult (25 weeks old) rats the 133Xe bolus technique was used. The effect of the preparation technique on the shape of the washout curve is discussed. The values of CGFfast estimated by the two compartmental analysis were comparable to that obtained by other methods.
