We perform multi-TI ASL measurements to simultaneously quantify CBF and AAT in multiple brain regions in response to different types of common gas stimuli: (i) room air, (ii) 5% CO2 / 95% room air (i.e., CO2/air), and (iii) 5% CO2 / 95% O2 (i.e., carbogen). Relative to room air, in all lobes, CBF was higher with CO2/air (P<0.05; range=14.9-24.5%) and carbogen (range=9.3-21.6%) stimulus, and AAT lower (P<0.05; CO2/air range=-13.4 - -20.6%; carbogen range=-9.2 - -12.1%). Values can be used as an exemplar for understanding how hypercarbia-induced CBF changes are influenced by blood water arrival time.
