The purpose of this investigation is to determine the normal values for regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) as determined by the xenon inhalation method of Obrist. Normal values for all rCBF parameters were measured in 15 healthy individuals. Our data are compared with the normal data obtained by other investigators. In addition, test-retest rCBF measurements were performed to determine the reproducibility of the method. Our results show that the method is highly reproducible when carried out in serial studies over a short period of time.

D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.
