[Evaluation of cerebral circulation in the presence of carotid vessel changes].
The importance of transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) use in the presence of extracranial carotid artery diseases (occlusions, stenosis, parietal irregularities) is discussed. The preliminary data, obtained from 25 patients and as many normal subjects, show a significant correlation in the two groups, between blood flow velocities in the middle (MCA) and anterior cerebral arteries (ACA).
