Abstract

With a view to develop an operator-independent monitoring system for sonothrombolysis, we aimed to evaluate the per cent agreement of power motion transcranial Doppler vessel tracks compared with computed tomography angiography in identification of the anterior and posterior circulation vessels in patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Consecutive acute ischaemic stroke patients who underwent emergent brain computed tomography angiography and bedside power motion transcranial Doppler were studied. Depth ranges for detecting anterior and posterior circulation vessels were derived from power motion transcranial Doppler flow tracks and computed tomography angiography images of the circle of Willis. We calculated percent agreement of power motion transcranial Doppler with computed tomography angiography for the anterior and posterior circulation vessel localization using computed tomography angiography as reference. Samples were obtained from 34 acute ischaemic stroke patients (mean age 61 ± 16 years, 62% men, median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score 5, interquartile range 2-8). A total of 229 Power motion Doppler computed tomography angiography vessel pairs were analysed. Power motion transcranial Doppler tra...Continue Reading

Acute Stroke

A stroke occurs when blood supply to the brain is interrupted depriving the brain of oxygen and nutrients. This feed focuses cerebrovascular accidents including ischemic and paralytic stroke.

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.
