Abstract

It is generally accepted that regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) is not homogenous throughout the normal hemisphere under resting conditions (Wilkinson et al., 1969; Ingvar and Schwartz, 1974; Lechner and Ott, 1978). In addition, evidence of regional augmentation of cortical rCBF stimulated by increased brain activity such as speech, reading, memorizing, reasoning, and arm work has accumulated(Olesen, 1971; Risberg and Ingvar, 1973; Ingvar and Schwartz, 1974; Ott et al., 1977; Lechner and Ott, 1978).
