Anaesthesia was induced with isoflurane and maintained during scans by spontaneous breathing of 2% isoflurane.
Visual and audio contact was maintained during all scanning procedures.
Vacuum pressure of 2 × 10−9 mbar was maintained during XPS scanning.
Core temperature was maintained at 37°C during scanning.
After the incubation period, the sample was removed, patted dry and placed in the plastic positioning device within a μCT holder containing a small amount of saline to help maintain sample hydration during scanning.
Any ventilation, pressor support, or sedation was maintained during the MRI scanning process; additional sedation was avoided.
Anesthesia was maintained during the PET/MR scan by isoflurane (0.8% to 1.5%, pure oxygen mixture) without active mechanical ventilation.
Patients receiving hypothermia had their therapy maintained during the MRI scan without any adverse events [ 14].
The amplitude of cantilever vibration is maintained constant during scanning by a feedback signal.
Passive hypothermia was maintained during the early brain MR scans when performed before rewarming without any adverse events.
