[Transcranial pulsed Doppler].
Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography is the only non invasive examination enabling the reliable measurement of the blood flow velocity in the intracranial arterial trunks. However, it cannot be constantly perfect. It is fully realized in about 10% of the patient. Even incomplete it remains a useful complementary exploration in the management of the cerebral vascular disease.
