[Use of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography for evaluation of intracranial pressure].
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) studies are very useful for the evaluation of intracranial pressure changes. The most informative for the TCD increase diagnosis are the diastolic pressure decrease and increase of two computed indices: pulsatility index (PI) and resistance index (RI). Single measurements can be misleading and therefore, monitoring of neurosurgical intensive care patients is suggested. Additional information is provided by TCD studies in cerebral blood flow autoregulation tests. The usefulness of TCD in brain death diagnosis is discussed also.
