Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is used to treat a number of ailments. Previously, during HBO at 3 atmospheres absolute fMRI studies, it was observed that BOLD response to an evoked stimulus was not washed out as a result of highly increased oxygen concentration. Additional experiments were performed to evaluate the potential contributions of stimulus-evoked inflow, spin density, and electrical activity to BOLD fMRI responses under HBO. CBF and BOLD fMRI of forepaw stimulation in anesthetized rats was performed under HBO and compared with normobaric air .
