• The Use of the Cerebral Oximetry for Patients Undergoing Dynamic Computed Tomography Myelography under General Anesthesia Rochester, Minn.

  The purpose of this study is to:

  1. Prospectively characterize the dynamic systemic hemodynamic changes that occur during dynamic CT myelography.

  2. Prospectively characterize the changes in regional cerebral oxygen saturation during dynamic CT myelography and how this technology can be used to guide systemic blood pressure management to enhance cerebral oxygen delivery in the setting of iatrogenically increased ICP.
