Measures of internal carotid artery dilation after magnetic facial nerve stimulation in pigs. a Cross-section area of the internal carotid arteries normalized to baseline. For simplicity, only data from experiments with 1.9 Tesla power for 2 min duration are shown. Repeated measures ANOVA demonstrated no difference between the right- and left-sided measures, but a significant effect between baseline (BL) and post-stimulation (*P < 0.05 versus baseline, paired t-test corrected by the Bonferroni method for multiple comparisons). b Change in cross-section area of the ipsilateral internal carotid arteries in relation to stimulation power and stimulation duration. ANOVA showed no significant difference across the various combinations of power and duration (P > 0.40). Mean ± SE; n = 3
