Results of initial wave experiment showing spreading depolarization (SD) starting from an equilibrium state. (a) Estimated blood oxygenation (sO2) of two regions of interest (ROI) in the left hemisphere (see Fig. 2b). (b) Simultaneous electrocorticography (ECoG) monitoring. Data from two adjacent electrodes on the left hemisphere is shown – the other three channels on the left hemisphere and the five channels on the right hemisphere showed no change. The electrodes were placed on the lateral margins of the brain as to not interfere with hybrid photoacoustic ultrasonic (PAUS) imaging. (cg) Absolute change in estimated sO2 (ΔsO2) in a region near the stimulation site (c) before potassium chloride (KCl) stimulation and (dg) 10–80 s after stimulation. In (df) spreading, intensifying hypoxia is measured followed by (g) an overcompensation in sO2.
