Abstract
One promising approach for mapping CMRO 2 is dual-calibrated functional MRI (dc-fMRI). This method exploits the Fick Principle to combine estimates of CBF from ASL, and OEF derived from BOLD-ASL measurements during arterial O 2 and CO 2 modulations. Multiple gas modulations are required to decouple OEF and deoxyhemoglobin-sensitive blood volume. We propose an alternative single gas calibrated fMRI framework, integrating a model of oxygen transport, that links blood volume and CBF to OEF and creates a mapping between the maximum BOLD signal, CBF and OEF (and CMRO 2 ). Simulations demonstrated the method's viability within physiological ranges of mitochondrial oxygen pressure, P m O 2 , and mean capillary transit time. A dc-fMRI experiment, performed on 20 healthy subjects using O 2 and CO 2 challenges, was used to validate the approach. The validation conveyed expected estimates of model parameters (e.g., low P m O 2 ), with spatially uniform OEF maps (grey matter, GM, OEF spatial standard deviation ≈ 0.13). GM OEF estimates obtained with hypercapnia calibrated fMRI correlated with dc-fMRI (r = 0.65, p = 2·10 -3 ). For 12 subjects, OEF measured with dc-fMRI and the single gas calibration method were correlated with whole-brain OEF derived from phase measures in the superior sagittal sinus (r = 0.58, p = 0.048; r = 0.64, p = 0.025 respectively). Simplified calibrated fMRI using hypercapnia holds promise for clinical application.
