Although meticulous in construction, this model creates ischemia more simply and more reliably than the Pulsinelli 4-vessel ischemia model that inspired it, with the inherent advantages of an isolated organ system, in which a known tissue volume is perfused at a predetermined volume and rate. This model permits robust long-term recovery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
