A normobaric gas mixer was developed to allow MR-based hypercapnic vasoreactivity studies on humans. It operates safely close to the magnet and can be remotely computer controlled. Hypercapnic episodes with FiCO 2 less than 10 % can be programmed to chain in succession for prescribed numbers of MR scanner trigger events. Device performance is demonstrated in a cerebral BOLD block-designed fMRI experiment.
