The role of TCD in hemodynamic evaluation of cerebral AVMs.
The cerebral AVMs have a considerable hemodynamic complexity and the transcranial doppler sonography may now provide noninvasively accurate hemodynamic information about these vascular lesions. It provides hemodynamic data like blood flow velocity on feeding arteries, intracranial steal phenomena, cerebral autoregulation disease as illustrated in 19 patients.
