Constitutive and inducible nitric oxide synthase activities after spinal cord contusion in rats.

abstract：:Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive optical technique which has been successfully used to register substantial cerebral ischemia. There are indications that NIRS is sensible enough to detect also small metabolic changes during the performance of cognitive tasks. In the present study, two-channel NIRS o...
