Abstract
Whole-body autoradiographic stuidies demonstrated that, when isotopically labeled glucose is placed in the ligated oropharynx, there is a rapid movement of the isotope directly to the intracranial cavity. This passage involves nonspecific diflision, bypassing all recognized rouctes to the brain.Keywords
