| Abstract | Statistically mapped speckle autocorrelation images (SAR) were used to track the hemodynamically active perfusion regions in the rat cortex during and following DC current stimulation with high transverse spatial resolution (38 um). The SAR images provided a spatio-temporal information about the net activation patterns of Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) changes over a period of time as against those changes for each frame interval estimated using spatial contrasts derived from the first order spatial statistics. Thus the information about the relative maxima of perfusion during a Transient Hyperaemic Episode (THE) across different regions in the imaging window could be identified without the need for actually having to estimate the spatial contrast maps of the imaged region for each frame contained in the time window of observation. With the application of DC stimulation, the regions with a high correlation in the temporal fluctuations were representative of the areas that underwent least changes in activation. By varying the intensity of stimulation, THEs were observed for stimulation current densities in the range 0.1–3.8 mA/mm2 using both the derived speckle contrast maps and concurrently on a Laser Doppler Flow meter, with its probe positioned 1 mm from the site of stimulation. For current densities below the lower threshold of stimulation, the SAR images revealed an unprecedented reduction in the surge amplitude at sites distal to the region of stimulation. This was accompanied by an increase in pixel areas representing minimally active regions of perfusion (“perfusion islets”) with no identifiable peak in the hemodynamic responses estimated from speckle contrast variations. The SAR images can be a useful tool for visualization of slow wave perfusion dynamics during cortical stimulation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
