Preoperative BOLD cerebrovascular reactivity correlates with intraoperative STA-MCA bypass flow and influences postoperative CVR improvement
The severity of preoperative hemodynamic impairment in the affected MCA territory correlates with the increased need for bypass flow, serving as a potential predictor for intraoperative quantitative bypass flow demand once relevant covariates are accounted for. The STA-MCA bypass appears to deliver optimal flow when the cerebrovascular reserve capacity is not fully exhausted.
