Here we evaluate the assumption that two common hypercapnic stimuli (5%CO2; and carbogen) are iso-metabolic using MRI-based measures of changes in venous blood oxygenation. Wholebrain CBF (pCASL), and Yv (TRUST-MRI) changes were measured for hypercapnic-normoxia, normocapnia-hyperoxia, and hypercapnic-hyperoxia stimuli allowing calculation of OEF and CMRO2. After correcting for the plasma-dissolved arterial and venous O2, no significant differences in OEF were found between 5%CO2 and carbogen. Significant CMRO2 decreases from room air were observed only for the hypercapnic-normoxic condition. We believe these findings will be of importance for interpreting calibrated fMRI and BOLD CVR measurements using hypercapnic or carbogen stimuli.
