Averaged power spectra for the IR signal collected from the standard black-body calibration source (thick dashed line), water at room temperature (thin solid line) and the 3×3 pixel ROI
(thick solid line) in the central area of rat kidneys (n=5).

(a) Changes in arterial pressure (blue), renal blood flow (RBF; red) and IR temperature (black) during baseline, injection of papaverine and post-injection.

Frequencies, their spectral magnitudes and duration of the temperature oscillations in the kidney, acquired during baseline conditions (interval 0–2200 s).

FFT-based power spectra of (a) tubular pressure and (b) IR-derived temperature profile, extracted from a 3×3 pixel ROI in close proximity to the tubular pressure micropipette (which was placed at
the approximate centre of the kidney surface).

Averaged power spectra of (a) tubular pressure variations (n=5) and (b) the IR signal collected from ROIs (3×3 pixels) in the central region of the kidneys (n=5).
