Resultados do estudo do Doppler transcraniano em crianças e adolescentes portadores de doença falciforme e correlação entre a velocidade média máxima e características hematológicas: um estudo transversal analítico [PDF]
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) detects stroke risk among children with sickle cell anemia (SCA). Our aim was to evaluate TCD findings in patients with different sickle cell disease (SCD) genotypes and correlate the time-averaged ...

Ultrasound and dynamic functional imaging in vascular cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
The vascular contributions to neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation may be assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (US). This review summarises the methodology for these widely available, safe and relatively low cost tools and ...

Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography predicts cardiovascular events after TIA
Background Transient ischemic attack (TIA) patients are at high vascular risk. We assessed the value of extracranial (ECD) and transcranial (TCD) Doppler and duplex ultrasonography to predict clinical outcome after TIA.

Changing ethnic disparity in ischemic stroke mortality in US children after the STOP trial. [PDF]
ImportanceA prior report showed higher stroke mortality in US black children compared with white children (1979-1998), a disparity likely due in part to sickle cell disease, which leads to a high risk of childhood ischemic stroke.

Abnormal transcranial Döppler ultrasonography in children with sickle cell disease
BACKGROUND: Stroke is a potentially fatal complication of sickle cell disease in children between 2-16 years and transcranial Döppler has been recommended as a screening method in these cases.

Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in neurological surgery and neurocritical care.
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography is an inexpensive, noninvasive means of measuring blood flow within the arteries of the brain. In this review, the authors outline the technology underlying TCD ultrasonography and describe its uses in patients ...

Role of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in stroke [PDF]
AbstractTranscranial Doppler sonongraphy is a non-invasive, non-ionising, inexpensive, portable and safe technique that uses a pulsed Doppler transducer for assessment of intracerebral blood flow. This article deals with the principles and technique of transcranial Doppler sonography.
