2 Figure 1 Position of ligatures and vessels perfused. Position of ligatures indicated by white boxes. A, Control. B, Unilateral cerebral perfusion. C, Bilateral cerebral perfusion. D, Bilateral cerebral perfusion with additional left subclavian artery perfusion. E, Common carotid artery perfusion. F, Subclavian artery perfusion. RSc, Right subclavian artery; RCC, right common carotid artery; LCC, left common carotid artery; LSc, left subclavian artery.

3 Figure 2 Group I: Control experiments showing the arterial filling in the brain and spinal cord. Top figures show perfusion using the E20 vascular marker. Botton figures show perfusion using the gelatin/India ink vascular marker.

6 Figure 5 Horizontal section of the thoracic spinal cord stained with methyl green showing filling of the microvasculature in the gray and white matter with colloidal carbon. CC, Central spinal canal; DH, dorsal horn; VH, ventral horn; SpA, branch of the spinal artery on the surface of the cord.

7 Figure 6 A, Group V: Perfusion of common carotid arteries alone with gelatin/India ink marker. Only proximal 30% of spinal cord arteries are filled. Good cerebral filling. B, Group VI: Perfusion of both subclavian arteries alone with gelatin/India ink marker. Only proximal 40% of spinal cord arteries are filled. Poor cerebral filling.
