Hemoglobin map sharpening after CSD. A, Hemoglobin response amplitudes (left) were significantly reduced for all moieties regardless of whether FP (top) or HP (bottom) was stimulated (both FP and HP: o/i–iii, p < 0.001; o/iv–v, p < 0.01; o/vi, p < 0.05). Area of activation (right) was significantly reduced for all moieties for both stimulus modalities (both FP and HP: o/i–vi, p < 0.001; HP, o/vi, p = 0.003). Data are normalized to pre-CSD o. B, Map contours (area at half-maximum response) are drawn for pre-CSD o and post-CSD i HbT activity, for two different animals. Post-CSD responses were uniformly concentric to the pre-CSD map, with significantly reduced area and amplitude. Scale bar, 1 mm.
