Medical Clinics of North America, 2009
Effective management of patients who have cerebrovascular disease depends on accurate diagnosis. Many conditions cause clinical findings that closely mimic cerebrovascular disorders and are often ruled out through brain imaging or laboratory findings. Diagnosis of cerebrovascular disorders is based on the presence of risk factors for vascular disease ...

Neurological Sciences, 2008
Conventional neuroradiological techniques, such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), make a fundamental contribution in both the acute and chronic phases of stroke. Recent years have witnessed the development of new imaging modalities, which include diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI), CT ...

With 16.9 million people who suffered a first-ever stroke in 2010 worldwide, stroke is a very common vascular disease. Epidemiologic studies have played an essential role in assessing this burden and in detecting the risk factors for stroke. Primary prevention of these risk factors, primarily hypertension, smoking, diabetes, and atrial fibrillation ...

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2003
Carotid endarterectomy remains the preferred surgical intervention for the prevention of stroke among patients with extracranial cerebrovascular disease. Subgroup analyses of the results of several multicentre trials have contributed substantially to our understanding of the appropriate selection of patients and the perioperative risk associated with ...

Imaging in cerebrovascular disease
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2001Various functional imaging modalities can be applied in acute ischaemic stroke to identify functionally impaired, but morphologically preserved tissue (i.e. the penumbra), and to distinguish it from irreversibly damaged tissue. Flow thresholds for irreversible tissue destruction resulting in functional impairment, as determined by positron emission ...

Extracranial Cerebrovascular Disease
Cardiology Clinics, 1991The prevention, management, and prognosis of patients with transient ischemic attack or stroke caused by extracranial cerebrovascular disease depend on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms involved. Atherosclerotic vascular disease is the predominant pathophysiologic mechanism.

Neuroprotection in Cerebrovascular Disease
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2000The role of neuroprotection in the management of acute cerebrovascular disease is reviewed. Neuroprotection is a valuable adjunct to thrombolytic therapy in acute cerebral ischaemia. Various pharmacological approaches for neuroprotection are based on the current knowledge of molecular events in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischaemia.

Pentoxifylline and Cerebrovascular Diseases
European Neurology, 2008Pentoxifylline is a drug known to increase red cell deformability, thus allowing the 7- to 8-µm diameter red cell to flow through the narrowest capillaries of 3–5 µmdiameter. Red cell deformability is reduced in various forms of cerebrovascular impairment.

Cerebrovascular disease and dementia
Drugs of Today, 2005Cerebrovascular disease and dementia are extremely prevalent and disabling disorders affecting older people. Results of previous pathological investigations and later epidemiological studies have raised the possibility that the two disorders may be causally related.
