ACA=anterior cerebral artery; ACoA=anterior communicating artery; CO₂=carbon dioxide; ICA=internal carotid artery; L=left; MCA=middle cerebral artery; OphA=opthalmic artery; PCoA=posterior communicating artery; R=right; TIA=transient ischaemic attack.
↵1-150 ((V_MCA hypercapnia: V_MCA normocapnia × 100) − 100)/ (pCO₂ hypercapnia− pCO₂normocapnia); abnormal < 1.9.
↵1-151 Both external and common carotid arteries were also occluded.
