The Davis model is widely used to estimate the change in CMRO2 in response to a stimulus. This requires the measurement of CBF and BOLD in response to a stimulus and hypercapnia. Increased sensitivity at 7T allows voxelwise assessment of CBF and BOLD, and multiphase ASL allows transit time independent estimation of CBF. Here we estimate M and CMRO2 for a motor task on a voxel-by-voxel basis compared to standard ROI analysis, for a CBF and BOLD ROI. A BOLD based ROI leads to overestimation of M and reduction in CMRO2 compared to voxelwise analysis, and a CBF based ROI.
