To define the effective spatial resolution of the hydrogen clearance method, serial local CBF (LCBF) measurements were performed at different distances from the cortico–white matter junction of the cat brain. Twenty-five platinum-wire microelectrodes with a sensitive surface of 0.07 mm2 were inserted into the cerebral cortex of three cats through burr holes in the skull and advanced toward the ear-to-ear level in 1- or 0.1-mm steps. Most electrodes passed from high-perfusion regions into low-perfusion areas, indicating that the cortico–white matter junction had been traversed. Whereas within the gray and white matter the LCBF values were fairly constant, a striking decrease of CBF was registered at the cortico–white matter junction. Here the mean LCBF from 12 electrodes showed significant differences in flow between two locations 1 mm apart. On two occasions, a significant difference in CBF was found for locations only 0.1 mm apart. Despite this high spatial resolution, monoexponential clearance curves were detected only in the vicinity of the cortico–white matter junction. It is therefore assumed that factors other than flow might influence H2 clearance.
