Abnormal transcranial Döppler ultrasonography in children with sickle cell disease
Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2012 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 should it be the first choice for persistent foramen ovale screening? [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Persistent foramen ovale (PFO) is considered a cause of cryptogenic stroke and a risk factor for neurological events in young patients. The reference standard for identifying a PFO is contrast-enhanced transesophageal echocardiography (TEE ...

A noninvasive estimation of cerebral perfusion pressure using critical closing pressure. [PDF]
, 2015 OBJECT: Cerebral blood flow is associated with cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), which is clinically monitored through arterial blood pressure (ABP) and invasive measurements of intracranial pressure (ICP). Based on critical closing pressure (CrCP), the

Results of an international survey on the investigation and endovascular management of cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Endovascular management of this condition offers a new hope in preventing adverse outcome; however, a uniform standard of ...

Non‐Invasive Multidimensional Capacitive Sensing for In Vivo Traumatic Brain Injury Monitoring
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Single‐electrode, multidimensional capacitive sensors noninvasively assess cerebral autoregulation and compliance for traumatic brain injury monitoring. ABSTRACT Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability, but invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is risky, and current non‐invasive methods lack the resolution and ...

Inferring common cognitive mechanisms from brain blood-flow lateralization data: a new methodology for fTCD analysis [PDF]
, 2014 Current neuroimaging techniques with high spatial resolution constrain participant motion so that many natural tasks cannot be carried out. The aim of this paper is to show how a time-locked correlation-analysis of cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV ...

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...
