Silent Infarcts with Sickle Cell Anemia
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 2002 The effect of transfusion therapy on the risk for new silent infarct or stroke in children with sickle cell anemia and abnormal transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography was determined at the University of Miami, FL, and other centers in the STOP trial (

Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2023 Cerebrovascular disease refers to damage to brain tissue caused by impaired intracranial blood circulation. It usually presents clinically as an acute nonfatal event and is characterized by high morbidity, disability, and mortality. Transcranial Doppler (

Evaluation of cerebral hemodynamic status in patients with unilateral symptomatic carotid artery stenosis during motor tasks, through use of transcranial Doppler sonography [PDF]
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2022 Background: Carotid artery stenosis increases cerebral ischemic event risk through changing different cerebral hemodynamic parameters. Objective: To investigate how cerebral hemodynamics in the M1 segment of middle cerebral artery change in patients with

An Analysis of Resting-State Functional Transcranial Doppler Recordings from Middle Cerebral Arteries [PDF]
, 2013 Functional transcrannial Doppler (fTCD) is used for monitoring the hemodynamics characteristics of major cerebral arteries. Its resting-state characteristics are known only when considering the maximal velocity corresponding to the highest Doppler shift (

Evaluation of vasomotor response in ophthalmic migraine patients [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2016 Introduction. Hemodynamic changes of the cerebral arteries in ophthalmic migraine may be an important pathophysiological mechanism of the disease. The nitric oxide (NO) synthesis plays a significant role in hemodynamic changes due to vasodilatation ...

Ultrasound and dynamic functional imaging in vascular cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2017 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 ...

Changing ethnic disparity in ischemic stroke mortality in US children after the STOP trial. [PDF]
, 2013 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.

Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography predicts cardiovascular events after TIA
BMC Medical Imaging, 2009 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.
