Development and evaluation of a breathing system to maintain carbondioxide level in the body for radiological investigation

Development and evaluation of a MRI compatible non- rebreathing sequential gas delivery circuit to maintain constant end tidal Carbon dioxide (ETCO2), to be used for Cerebro Vascular Reactivity (CVR) assessment using fMRI and allied techniques.
