[Development of the vascular system in brain hemispheres in developing rats].
The blood passage from a major artery to a major vein was digitally reconstructed as well as hydraulic pressure, linear blood flow velocity, wall shear stress, and vascular resistance, following postmortem studies of 2-week old, 1-month old, and adult Wistar rats. The findings suggest that cerebro-cortical vascular bed acquires its functional specifics by the 3rd-4th week after birth.
