Recent years have seen remarkable advances in the devel- ment of
techniques that have direct applications in neurological research.
In consequence, the circulatory and metabolic status of the brain
can be measured and correlated with changes m structure often
noninvasively, m the same - and integrated function, perimental
subIect This has stimulated an increased awareness of the
complexity, under normal and pathological conditions, of the
interdependence of these factors. Through the application of the
methods described in this volume, however, these complexities can
now be analyzed. The chapters m this volume present methodological
- scriptions of some of the most powerful "physicochemical" methods
for studymg the brain. Multidisciplmary teams are - quired to
develop some of these methods, which are extremely expensive m
terms of capital equipment costs and technological personnel
support Thus, they will likely remain restricted to malor medical
research centers Nevertheless, many recent concepts of brain
responses to disease are a result of their application We have been
fortunate m convincing active, leading sci- tists to contribute to
this volume. The descrrptions of the basic prmciples of each
method, and its applications and limitations, are derived primarily
from their personal experiences. The first two chapters (Rowan,
Auer) deal with methods for assessing brain hemodynamics. The two
subsequent chapters (Greenberg; He- covitch) describe
autoradiography and positron emission tomog- phy techniques, which
provide quantitative measurements of brain metabolism as well as
blood flow.
