Abstract
Pial artery diameter is likely to be regulated by local effects of pre ssure and flow, since there is little evidence for neural influences o n these vessels. The larger cerebral arteries are influenced by the sa me constrictor and dilator neural outflows that are distributed to man y other tissues of the head.
