Questions and Answers

Which of the following statements accurately reflects the relationship between cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen consumption (CMRO2) and brain glucose consumption?

  • CMRO2 is normally 3 to 3.8 mL/100 g/min and brain glucose consumption is normally 5 mg/100 g/min (correct)
  • CMRO2 and brain glucose consumption are both normally 3 to 3.8 mL/100 g/min
  • CMRO2 is normally 5 mg/100 g/min and brain glucose consumption is normally 3 to 3.8 mL/100 g/min
  • CMRO2 and brain glucose consumption are both normally 5 mg/100 g/min
