Schema of neuronal histogram and neuronal energetics. Histograms of total neuronal activity represented by distribution of firing rates (ν) of the same neuronal ensemble, composed of many neurons, in low (blue; left) and high (green; right) baseline energy states. The histograms can be converted to CMRO2 by multiplying the number of neurons firing at a given rate over the entire range of frequencies. See refs. 5 and for details on neuronal histogram and neuronal energetics.
