“…[21][22][23][24] Finally, after CEA, the CO 2 reactivity has been shown to increase on both sides, reflecting the improvement of cerebral hemodynamics. 5,[25][26][27] Similar results were found with alternative methods to measure cerebrovascular reserve based on changes in regional cerebral blood flow and/or volume, such as with single-photon emission computed tomography, positron emission tomography, or MRI. [28][29][30] Also, an association was found between a decreased acetazolamide response and the presence of high intensity signals on MRI, especially when located in the centrum semiovale.…”
