The Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) signal, used in resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), is tighly linked to Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF). This study evaluates the impact of the CBF on the low-frequencies BOLD fluctuations and four physiological parameters during restingstate in 5 groups of rats (Wistar and Long-Evans) anesthetized with Isoflurane, Medetomidine, Etomidate and Urethane. It is shown that the CBF is not related to physiological parameters, and there exists a range of CBF values where the BOLD fluctations are sufficiently high for being used in any other analysis.
