No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Brain white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are prevalent in migraineurs, of which the mechanism is still unclear. The investigators aimed to test the spatial association between areas with reduced cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) to hypercapnic stimuli and consequent development of WMHs.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

BOLD MRI

1. Prospective End-tidal targeting RespirAct device(A specially designed gas blender and sequential rebreathing circuit) will be used to implement the gas targeting method which involves precise elevations in End-tidal PCO2 while maintaining a fixed End-tidal PO2 2. BOLD MR images will be obtained by using a T2\*-weighted two-dimensional gradient-echo sequence with echoplanar readout.
