Summary

Experiments were made on the internal carotid arteries of dogs and rabbits using Cybulski and Klisiecki's method of photohemotachometry. A considerable constriction of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery followed electrical stimulation (2 v) of the superior cervical sympathetic ganglion; a stronger stimulation (6 v) caused complete closure of the arterial lumen. Ergotamine blocked this effect. Simultaneous recordings of the bloodflow in both internal carotid arteries revealed periodical vasomotor fluctuations of the lumen. The effect appeared to be exerted by sympathetic control over these arteries.
