Abstract

The inhalation anesthetics are peripheral vasodilators and are reported to have the same effects on the cerebral vasculature, increasing cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV), even at clinical concentrations [3, 7, 13, 15, 17]. This question is still debated [4, 5, 12].
