Dataset corresponding to scientific paper "Improved reperfusion following alternative surgical approach for experimental stroke in mice"

Acquired raw experimental data using laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) following middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in mice. Data obtained from mice undergoing standard CCA ligation technique and mice undergoing CCA vessel repair technique¹. The dataset is linked to paper "Improved reperfusion following alternative surgical approach for experimental stroke in mice". The dataset consists of the following: Raw LSCI flux values, from ipsilateral and contralateral hemispheres, measured at baseline, 24hours post-MCAO and 48hours post-MCAO. Normalised data expressing ispilateral hemisphere as a % of the control contralateral hemisphere. Mean normalised values for each subject. <strong>References</strong> Trotman-Lucas,M., Kelly, M.E., Janus, J., Fern, R., Gibson, C.L.
