Abstract
Activity-dependent increases in blood flow comprise the basis for functional brain imaging and are considered a hallmark of normal brain function. The central dogma of blood flow regulation states that flow changes effected by arteriolar tone drive functional hyperemia and that the capillary bed is a passive conduit for hyperemia resulting from upstream vasodilation. Recent evidence has begun to challenge this convention in cerebral blood flow...
