Abstract
Neurovascular coupling, the coordination of changes in metabolic demand from neuronal tissue with vascular regulation of localized blood perfusion, has previously been investigated by diffuse optical imaging and trans-cranial EEG in anesthetized rats. To overcome the profound impact of anesthetics on brain hemodyamics and electrical activity, we have developed an implantable electro-optical probe for longitudinal measurements in fully awake rats.
