Monitoring brain blood flow in a volunteer with the new functional interferometric diffusing wave spectroscopy device invented at UC Davis. The new technology promises easier, cheaper measurements of ...

Researchers then measured brain activity using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), which tracks changes in blood flow. All forms of exercise, except for some static stretches ...

A brain SPECT creates a detailed, 3D picture of the blood flow in the brain, showing which areas may not be getting enough blood. The results of the study have been published in Scientific Reports.

One possible link between brain freeze and other headache types is local changes in brain blood flow. 'Brain freeze' is a nearly universal experience -- almost everyone has felt the near ...

Continuous monitoring The conformal ultrasound patch enables volumetric mapping of the major arteries in the brain and recording of blood flow spectra. The patch consists of an array of piezoelectric ...

Even while we are asleep, the brain does not rest completely. Surprisingly, the blood flow in a sleeping brain can be greater than when it is in a wakeful state. This allows the brain to remove ...

The team found that the hypertension drug led to an increase in blood flow of 20 percent to the hippocampus, the brain region responsible for memory and learning.

Scientists have previously shown that lower-than-usual levels of blood flow to the brain, and stiffer blood vessels leading to the brain, are associated with MCI and dementia. Studies have also ...

Even while we are asleep, the brain does not rest completely. Surprisingly, the blood flow in a sleeping brain can be greater than when it is in a wakeful state. This allows the brain to remove waste ...

One possible link between brain freeze and other headache types is local changes in brain blood flow. In a new study, Melissa Mary Blatt, Michael Falvo, and Jessica Jasien of the Department of ...
