From Mechanisms to Medicine: Neurovascular Coupling in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cerebrovascular Disorders: A Narrative Review

From Mechanisms to Medicine: Neurovascular Coupling in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cerebrovascular Disorders: A Narrative Review

Neurovascular coupling (NVC) refers to the process of local changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) after neuronal activity, which ensures the timely and adequate supply of oxygen, glucose, and substrates to the active regions of the brain. Recent clinical imaging and experimental technology advancemen...
