Abstract

Cerebral blood flow is a function of brain metabolism [1, 2, 5, 8]. In the physiological state, blood flow is determined by brain activity [8, 9]. All the methods that increase EEG frequency increase blood flow, and vice versa [3, 4]. There is a correlation between EEG frequency and cerebral blood flow in the senile mental patient [11]; a correlation is often observed between EEG rhythm and blood flow in pathological conditions of the blood vessels of the brain [5].
