title: [Changes in the pulsatility index (Gosling) under drug action].
abstract: The alterations in cerebral hemodynamics induced by drugs (papaverine, Cavinton, magnesium sulphate, piracetam, histamine) in a series of 152 patients compared with a control series were analysed. The response of each basal cerebral artery to these drugs is assessed through the pulsatility index value.
