Transcranial
colour-coded duplex sonography is a relatively new non-invasive method for imaging both the intracranial circulation and the parenchymal structures of the brain.
Transcranial colour-coded duplex sonography is a relatively new non-invasive method for imaging both the intracranial circulation and the parenchymal structures of the brain.
It allows multiple investigation, follow up and evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy in patients with various brain diseases cerebral infarctions, intracerebral haematomas, cerebral oedema, stenoses and aneurysms of the basal cerebral arteries, arterio-venous malformations, thrombosis of cerebral veins, brain tumors and some neurodegenerative diseases. The article summarises the update knowledge concerning the clinical application of this method in neurology.

The use of
transcranial
Doppler sonography (TCD) with monitoring of the mean flow velocity (MFV) in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) gives possibility for noninvasive evaluation of the autoregulatory response when assessing the cerebral autoregulation (CA).
The use of transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) with monitoring of the mean flow velocity (MFV) in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) gives possibility for noninvasive evaluation of the autoregulatory response when assessing the cerebral autoregulation (CA).
Different stimuli for alteration of the mean blood pressure (MBP) during the autoregulatory tests have been applied: thigh cuff, Valsalva, carotid compression, neck suction, orthostatic stress, cognitive tasks. CA could also be examined by calculation of the phase shift between the spontaneous oscillations of the MBP and the MFV in the MCA.

Duplex and transcranial ultrasound examination is most often used in everyday practice.
It is less expensive, reliable and suitable for bedside diagnosis. The most common sites for plaque formation – the origin of the common carotid artery (12.4%), the internal carotid artery (ICA) just above the bifurcation (22.3%), the origin of the middle cerebral artery (4.1%) and the basilar artery (8.7%) – can be examined in large majority of patients.

A favorable effect of the repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), is discribed in several publications in the literature.
We have applied rTMS in a case of epilepsy with very frequent secondary generalized seizures (in the last 3 months average 3 times a day). The beginning was in the early infant age, and at first the seizures have been partial at right. With the age they became generalized, and sometimes complex seizures have been observed by relatives. The neurological examination proved only a latent right-sided hemiparesis. There were focal signs as picks on the left site trace in a former EEG, and in the last one-slow-wave activity was presented.

transcranial
Doppler sonography (TCD) reveals thrombosis of the sphenoid part of the right MCA, confirmed by magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).
The case report represents a 43-year-old man with acute ischemic cerebral stroke in the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory related to arterial hypertension, thrombosis of the origine of the right MCA and long-lasting risk factors-smoking, alcohol abuse and stress. The clinical examination reveals a mild left-sided hemiparesis, left facial palsy and left hemihypesthesia, which undergo improvement and complete recovery one year after the incident. In the acute stage of stroke a subcortical lacunar infarction in the right hemisphere (motor region) is proved by a CT scan.
The magnetic resonance imaging registers ischemic zones in the right cerebral hemisphere and transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) reveals thrombosis of the sphenoid part of the right MCA, confirmed by magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).
On the 17th day from the stroke onset some initial recanalization of the MCA is detected by TCD and one year later a complete racanalization is observed.

[1] introduced a pulsed transcranial Doppler system (TCD) using a low frequency (2 MHz) transducer that enabled recordings of the blood flow velocities (BFV) from intracranial arteries through selected cranial foramina and thin regions of the skull (ultrasonic windows).
TCD, like extracranial Doppler, is based on the principle that ultrasonic signals reflected off moving objects (erythrocytes) demonstrate a change of frequency, which is shifted in direct proportion to the velocity of the moving object [2]. It is a reliable, noninvasive technique for measuring BFV in the major arteries at the base of the brain and with portable, relatively inexpensive equipment. TCD has now become one of the most important tools for the evaluation of the cerebral vasculature.

Using
transcranial
Doppler US it is possible to identify the signals of disturbed circulation and by mechanical action of US to increase the surface of t-PA action over the thrombosis.
Based on numerous studies in the last three decades, research in improvement of the acute stroke thrombolysis (TL) efficacy has been directed in the way of natural fusion of diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound (US).
Using transcranial Doppler US it is possible to identify the signals of disturbed circulation and by mechanical action of US to increase the surface of t-PA action over the thrombosis.
US energy could be applied for pure mechanical TL as well as for enhancing enzyme-mediated TL. Sonothrombolysis (STL) is more effective if combined with contrast agents. Microbubble agents accelerate drug pharmacodynamics at the site and improve mechanical dissolution of a thrombus. Low frequency and high intensity intracranial US insonation (between 20 KHz and 1 МHz; 1-35 W/сm

Терапевтичният УЗ с нискочестотна (КHz) система е изпитван в проучването Transcranial LowFrequency Ultrasound-Medicated Thrombolysis in Brain Ischemia – TRUMBI [16].
Това е първото мултицентрово клинично проучване от 6 германски университетски центъра за оценка на безопасността на t-PA, плюс нискочестотен УЗ (300 kHz), при лечение на ИМИ [16]. Изследването е било преустановено, след като при 5 от 26 пациенти в целевата група (36%) са регистрирани симптоматични хеморагии чрез ЯМР, без ефективна ранна реканализация или клинична разлика в изхода на 3-я месец [16]. Това изследване демонстрира биоефектите на средно-килохерцните УЗ емисии за индуциране на симптоматични кръвоизливи, включително в зони, които не са били засегнати от исхемия.

(Combined Lysis of Thrombus in Brain Ischemia using transcranial Ultrasound and Systematic TPA) [5, 10] е изследване, в което са рандомизирани 126 пациенти с ИМИ.
То доказа, че продължителното ТДС мониториране (общо 2 часа) чрез 2-МHz диагностична сонда, с мощност 750 mW, постоянни ъгъл и местоположение на инсонация, при дълбочина – мястото с найлош остатъчен ток по TIBI скалата, има положителен ефект върху първичните крайни цели. Не установява повишаване на честотата на хеморагичните мозъчни усложнения при ТЛ на болни с ИМИ и демонстрира тенденция за подобро възстановяване след ИМИ спрямо болните с плацебо [5]. Резултатите от изследването на Alexandrov и сътр. показват, че 2-часовото ТДС мониториране на СМА при болни с ИМИ е без сериозни странични ефекти и усилва индуцираната от t-PA реканализиция (на 2-я час

By means of
transcranial
Doppler sonography the BFV of the right MCA at a depth of 50–55 mm was monitored.
The study was performed in 15 pilots, tested by the method of SACM with maximal +Gz-8G load. The cardiac reactivity was assessed using 3chanels electrocardiography (ECG). A parallel infra-red pletismography at the level of the right temporal artery was applied and the delayed pulse wave (measured in milliseconds between R wave of the ECG and the peak of the pletismography) was estimated.
By means of transcranial Doppler sonography the BFV of the right MCA at a depth of 50–55 mm was monitored.

These findings are systolic spikes or oscillating flow in any cerebral artery which can be recorded by bilateral
transcranial
insonation for anterior circulation, or any intracranial vertebral or basilar artery which can be recorded by suboccipital insonation for the posterior circulation.
Certain prerequisites must be fulfilled before using Doppler sonography to confirm cerebral circulatory arrest [5, 6, 7]. The cause of coma must be established and must be sufficient to account for a permanent loss of brain function. Other conditions such as intoxication, hypothermia, severe arterial hypotension, metabolic disorders and others have been excluded. Clinical evaluation by two experienced examiners must show no evidence of cerebral or brainstem functions. Cerebral circulatory arrest can be confirmed if certain extraand intracranial Doppler sonographic findings have been recorded and documented bilaterally on two examinations at an interval of at least 30 min.
These findings are systolic spikes or oscillating flow in any cerebral artery which can be recorded by bilateral transcranial insonation for anterior circulation, or any intracranial vertebral or basilar artery which can be recorded by suboccipital insonation for the posterior circulation.
The diagnosis established by the intracranial examination must be confirmed by the extracranial bilateral recording of the common carotid arteries, internal carotid arteries and vertebral arteries. Ventricular drains or large openings of the skull like in decompressive craniectomy possibly interfering with the development of the intracranial pressure should not be present. During the examination blood pressure should be monitored, documented, and hypotension should be avoided.

in an occlusive disease of an artery supplying the brain).

Doppler sonography as well as color-coded duplex ultrasonography is possible even in patients with an unfavorable acoustic bone window [1, 8].
With the aid of an echo contrast agent, examination with transcranial Doppler sonography as well as color-coded duplex ultrasonography is possible even in patients with an unfavorable acoustic bone window [1, 8].
Following intravenous injection of a first generation contrast agent Levovist, the backscattered signal can be enhanced up to 25 dB because of a transient increase in echogenicity of the blood [9]. In contrast-enhanced examination of the posterior circulation, more detailed information about the anatomical course of the basal cerebral arteries can be obtained. After application of SonoVue, a longer stretch of the basilar artery is visible. Furthermore, the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), the anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA), and the superior cerebellar artery can be displayed. An easier visualization of the intracranial arteries facilitates the diagnostic assessment of pathological conditions.

The results obtained from a multicenter, openlabel, randomized cross-over study investigating the diagnostic potential of SonoVue using transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TCCS) confirm this clinical observation [10].
In a group of forty patients, echo enhancement contributed to converting a non-diagnostic study into a diagnostic one in more than half of the indications (in 66%), and increased the confidence in diagnosis in 74 %. In a non-trial situation, this would have allowed the diagnosis to be reached more quickly. To make good treatment decisions, early, reliable information about the condition of the arteries of the Circle of Willis is necessary [11].

Postert and Seidel were able to measure time-intensity curves through the intact skull with
transcranial
sonography using the bubble response from the contrast agents Levovist™ and Optison™ respectively [19].
In the applications where the microbubbles need to be preserved – e.g. in imaging of very low blood flow velocities in the capillaries of the brain parenchyma, the low mechanical index (MI) imaging modality is a preferred approach. Different techniques such as pulse inversion harmonic imaging, power modulation, harmonic power Doppler imaging, and contrast pulse sequencing are described to evaluate perfusion in microcirculation [18]. For quantification of brain tissue perfusion, bolus injection kinetics, refill injection kinetics or diminution kinetics are currently being explored. After a bolus injection of the contrast agent, time intensity curves with wash-in and wash-out phases can be analyzed.
Postert and Seidel were able to measure time-intensity curves through the intact skull with transcranial sonography using the bubble response from the contrast agents Levovist™ and Optison™ respectively [19].
They showed that the examination is feasible, not only in young adults with a good acoustic temporal bone window. The value of this diagnostic method could also be demonstrated in pathological conditions, e.g. in patients with acute hemispheric stroke [20, 21].

Understanding the specific values of every functional neuroimaging method (single photon emission tomography, positron emission tomography, functional magnetic resonance tomography, ultrasound neuroimaging and functional
transcranial
Doppler ultrasound) enables the creation of adequate diagnostic patterns for specific clinical cases.
The application of functional neuroimaging methods for assessment of language functions is an important step in the progress of theoretical and practical neuroscience towards overcoming the limitations of structural imaging. Providing information about the state and dynamics of general and local perfusion, metabolism, or cerebral activity, they are widely applied for evaluation of cognitive and more specifically, language functions. They are the basis of the recent progress in clarifying the structural and functional brain correlates of normal language functions. They are largely applied in diagnostics and follow-up of disorders leading to language disturbances.

Ultrasound methods (color duplex scanning and transcranial Doppler ultrasound) are increasingly applied for several reasons including the vascular hypothesis for AD, the importance of modifiable vascular factors for AD and vascular dementia, and the role of the decrease of cerebral perfusion with age for the development of cognitive deficit.
They are able to detect vascular pathology causing chronic hypoperfusion decades before the onset of cognitive impairment, and help together with echocardiography, to screen cognitively intact middle-aged persons and ones with mild memory complaints. The assessment of intima-media complex is of special interest [18, 20, 19, 21, 22, 28, 43, 57], as are the detection of microembolic signals, impaired vasomotor reactivity of the basal cerebral arteries, etc.

Functional

Doppler ultrasound (fTDU) with application of different tests is a complementary neuroimaging tool evaluating changes of blood perfusion caused by neuronal activation during cognitive assessment.
Functional transcranial Doppler ultrasound (fTDU) with application of different tests is a complementary neuroimaging tool evaluating changes of blood perfusion caused by neuronal activation during cognitive assessment.
Like other neuroimaging methods, sensitive to perfusion, such as PET and fMRI, fTDU is based on the close relationship between changes of cerebral blood flow and neuronal activity. This method assures much better temporal resolution compared to other neuroimaging techniques. Other advantages include low dependence on motion artifacts, easy application even in children and in uncooperative patients, and noninvasiveness. As an event-related neuroimaging method monitoring blood flow changes in middle cerebral arteries it has been applied for determining the brain lateralization of language and other cognitive functions. A significant increase in velocity has been registered in the dominant hemisphere during a cognitive task [8, 42].

In the summer of 1981, I was fortunate to be invited to do research at the Department of Neurosurgery in Bern by Prof. Helge Nornes—a pioneer in the study of cerebral hemodynamics using electromagnetic flowmetry and intraoperative Doppler. Before accepting the position, I decided to try to get Doppler signals from the intracranial vessels using a 2MHz pulsed Doppler system that I happened to have on loan in my laboratory (the Doppler was used for developing a full scale physical model of the left ventricle and aorta for the Norwegian Underwater Institute). After searching the temporal region where the bone was assumed to be thin, a distinct Doppler sound came from a depth of 5cm, and hyperventilation made its frequencies drop markedly. The signal simply had to originate from a cerebral artery.

In the 1990’ties the
transcranial
color imaging Doppler was introduced.
In the early years, TCD was also applied to the evaluation of the intracranial collateral circulation in carotid stenosis.
In the 1990’ties the transcranial color imaging Doppler was introduced.
As this instrumentation became more sensitive, it is currently preferred in many centers for the routine examination. The advantage is that the image makes artery identification easier for the operator. However, the diagnosis is still based on spectral analysis of the Doppler signal like in the conventional TCD examination.

Ultrasonic methods are the fastest, cheapest and highly informative tool for noninvasive diagnosis of periand postoperative complications associated with CEA or stenting [2].
For the experienced researcher using multimodal ultrasound (a combination of duplex-scan, B-flow imaging and transcranial Doppler sonography), the sensitivity of the method to the DSA for diagnosis of postoperative distal dissections is over 95%.
A mobile hyperechoic intimal flap and double vascular lumen causing carotid stenosis with an irregular shape and flame-type end is detected [3, 4]. The formation of distal fenestra causes return of part of the flow from false to true lumen. The absence of fenestra induces the deposition of embolic material at the bottom of the false lumen. In a large intimal defect (more than 6-8 mm) intramural hematoma is most commonly found, whose echogenicity is determined by its limitation

Magnetic stimulation (MS) is a noninvasive neurophysiologic method of studying the functions and relations in nervous system using electromagnetic induction.
It is divided on transcranial (TMS) and peripheral (PMS) depending on target anatomical structures.
Brain cortex, nerve roots, plexuses, cranial and peripheral nerves stimulation by rapidly changing magnetic field leads to depolarization and hyperpolarization of neurons and induces well detectable weak electric currents. Since its introduction in 1985 this method has undergone a large development and has given new perspectives in pathophysiology, diagnostics and therapy of different diseases in Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery.

The combined use of
transcranial
magnetic stimulation improves cortical activation and may be a useful therapy adjunct [27].
It has been shown that reduced activation of the ipsilateral hemisphere improves motor function in both healthy individuals and those with traumatic brain injury or stroke.
The combined use of transcranial magnetic stimulation improves cortical activation and may be a useful therapy adjunct [27].
Robot-assisted practice may be helpful by implementation of repetitive training tasks; body weight-supported treadmill training promotes gait improvement after traumatic brain injury, stroke or partial spinal cord injury (fig. 3). An important fact is that general aerobic exercise programs stimulate CNS plasticity. Functional electrical stimulation enhances somatosensory input to the brain. Continued activity and training after formal therapy is necessary to preserve functional gains [17].

Neuroimaging and neurophysiologic methods (functional magnetic resonance imaging and
transcranial
magnetic stimulation) reveal changes in the motor cortex in response to physical exercises.
Most specific deficits (motor, sensory, language) recover at great degree during the first 3 to 6 months after stroke. Probably the most important recovery is the ability to restore self-care activities and mobility. Ideally, stroke rehabilitation should begin within the first 24 hours of stroke, if possible – in a stroke unit [40]. Intensive comprehensive rehabilitation is more useful than lessintense programs [2]. Daily rehabilitation procedures have a better effect than the same number of procedures performed for a longer period of time [45].
Neuroimaging and neurophysiologic methods (functional magnetic resonance imaging and transcranial magnetic stimulation) reveal changes in the motor cortex in response to physical exercises.
Recent concepts offer an intensive therapy with motor tasks associated with more functional skills. The degree of impairment of the corticospinal tract is a prognostic factor [5]. Various aids are used: canes, walkers, ortheses, etc. The medical team responsible for patients’ condition in the course of rehabilitation watches for occurrence of potential complications and solves problems that may delay the rehabilitation process (dysphagia, incontinency, shoulder pains, spasticity, falls and post-stoke depres-

In comparison, the other DCVs are more difficult to investigate using transcranial US.
This especially applies to the ICVs, showing a detection rate of approximately 10 to 20% [111, 56]. As the anatomy of the BVR is extremely stable and forms part of the internal venous system, a flow towards the probe in the distal BVR can definitely be regarded as a pathological finding. However, an image of a retrograde flow in the BVR was never shown by Zamboni. As a side note, a retrograde flow signal in the BVR can also be present in cerebral venous thrombosis [12, 56] and tumour-induced obstructions of the SS [5, 44], as well as in arterio-venous angioma [61].

The safety and efficacy of an STL treatment are influenced by the following key factors, among others: thromboembolic occlusion locations, temporal bone window sizes,
transcranial
beam patterns, steering coverage, power deposition, MB concentration and replenishment time, total treatment time, workflow, etc.
The safety and efficacy of an STL treatment are influenced by the following key factors, among others: thromboembolic occlusion locations, temporal bone window sizes, transcranial beam patterns, steering coverage, power deposition, MB concentration and replenishment time, total treatment time, workflow, etc.
These multiple dimensional factors present unique challenges to the system designer: for example, the cerebral bone window confines the available aperture size and bone attenuation limits the useable frequency range, which then constrain the ability to focus and steer the beam. Therefore, a system approach is needed for an integrated design of therapeutic array, pulsing (frequency, pulse length, amplitude, duty cycle etc.), scanning sequence, and array fixture. Additional system design considerations include the ability of the system to mesh with the existing stroke workflow for easier and faster adoption by clinicians, or in a point-ofcare setting to start the treatment as soon as possible.

This lecture summarizes the advantages and the specific roles of
transcranial
Doppler (TCD) ultrasound to establish and monitor the presence of PTV and ICH.
Critical care management of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) has undergone tremendous advances. Neurosurgeons, neurologists and neurointensivists, including military, have a large armamentarium of invasive monitoring modalities available to detect secondary brain injury and guide therapy. The primary goal monitoring is to prevent secondary insults to the brain, primarily cerebral ischemia due to the posttraumatic vasospasm (PTV), and intracranial hypertension (ICH).
This lecture summarizes the advantages and the specific roles of transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound to establish and monitor the presence of PTV and ICH.

This comprises not only the correct identification of MES in the
transcranial
Doppler signal but also the ease of use.
It has been shown for different patient categories that the detection of microembolic signals (MES) in the middle cerebral artery helps to estimate the risk of future cerebrovascular events. The strength of the evidence for this relationship differs for the different clinical situations. So, the question whether automated MES detection should be applied in the daily clinical context depends not only on the adequacy of the detection system. However, a properly functional system is a prerequisite for its succesful clinical application.
This comprises not only the correct identification of MES in the transcranial Doppler signal but also the ease of use.
Only if both criteria are fulfilled automated MES detection is likely to be used in clinical practice.

Blood transfusions decrease stroke risk in patients deemed high risk by
transcranial
Doppler (TCD) by evidence of elevated intracranial internal carotid or middle cerebral artery velocity.
Stroke is an important complication of sickle cell disease. Approximately twenty-four percent of patients have a stroke by the age of 45 years.
Blood transfusions decrease stroke risk in patients deemed high risk by transcranial Doppler (TCD) by evidence of elevated intracranial internal carotid or middle cerebral artery velocity.
A follow-up of neurologically symptomatic and asymptomatic sickle cell patients increased other factors were significant in the identification of patients at risk that could include: velocity in the ophthalmic artery > that of the ipsilateral MCA, maximum velocity in the posterior cerebral (PCA), vertebral, or basilar arteries > maximum velocity in the MCA, turbulence, PCA visualized without the MCA. These news observations in TCD exams have been included in a practical way and will be discussed. TCD screening itself only stratifies stroke risk, but does not prevent stroke; stroke prevention depends on the implementation of chronic transfusion therapy. However, access to vascular laboratories appears to be a barrier to the implementation of this highly effective stroke prevention strategy, even among children with comprehensive health insurance. The difficulties in performing the examination, differences in imaging and nonimaging techniques, and interpretation guidelines are the main problems.

Intracranial hemodynamics can be assessed by
Transcranial
Doppler Sonography (TCD), functional TCD with various functional tests, and TCD detection of cerebral emboli.
The most common types of CVDs are ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack, hemorrhagic stroke and vascular dementia. CVDs affect millions of people worldwide, regardless of age, and represent a group of very important medical and social problems. Therefore, their prevention is becoming an imperative. Risk factors, such as age, gender, genetic factors, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholsterolemia, atrial fibrillation, orlifestyle,are causing changes of vessel walls which lead to CVD. Early changes of the blood vessel wall can be detected by early ultrasound screening methods which allow us to detect changes before the disease becomes clinically evident.
Intracranial hemodynamics can be assessed by Transcranial Doppler Sonography (TCD), functional TCD with various functional tests, and TCD detection of cerebral emboli.
Extracranial circulation (carotid and vertebral arteries) can be assessed by means of color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI). Novel ultrasound technology enables us non-invasive, bedside detection ofearly vascular changes such as arterial stiffness,

The aim of this study was to describe the detection of some MES during routine vasospasm monitoring by
transcranial
Doppler (TCD).
The cerebral vasospasm is considered one of the most common and serious complications of Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can be a cause of neurological ischemic transient or permanent, and contributes to increased rates of morbidity and mortality of patients. Previous studies suggested that intracranial aneurysms can act as sources of distal embolization. Spontaneous thrombus can be observed within the aneurysmal sac, presumably because of turbulence and slow flow.

In the acute stroke the neurosonological study of the cervical and cerebral arteries may suggest a cardiac aetiology, which can be important in the case of a paroxysmal AF. In fact, the absence of significant arterial extraand intracranial pathology (such as atherosclerotic plaques, arterial dissection or other) in the case of a patient with a nonlacunar stroke is highly suggestive of an upstream (cardiac) source of an embolus.

Since its first development, described in 1982 by Rune Aaslid, transcranial Doppler has allowed a continuous and non-invasive monitoring of cerebral blood flow velocities in the basal cerebral arteries, through temporal bone “windows” [1].
Although TCD does not register directly CBF in the small vasoactive arteriolar system, but rather in the cerebral basal distribution arteries, distal arteriolar calibre variation in response to physiologic stimuli will induce flow variations on basal arteries, and therefore blood flow velocity. It could be argued that TCD measures CBF velocities and does not measure the CBF itself. Nevertheless, since flow is equal to the product of area and velocity, and calibre in insonated basal cerebral vessels remains constant with pressure changes of up to 20 mmHg, flow velocity changes correlate closely to flow changes. So, TCD allows continuous non-invasive monitoring of regional CBF variations, doing it with an excellent temporal resolution [2, 9, 19].

While the younger group showed taskspecific flow activation in one territory at a time, the older group showed a generalized increase in blood flow in both the territories in response to both tasks suggesting generalization of cerebral activity to compensate for age related loss of region specific function. Similar generalization of cerebral activity was also reported with functional MRI during cognitive tasks in elderly people [6].

Functional transcranial Doppler can also be useful for evaluating presymptomatic and even prelesional subjects with genetic diseases affecting the endothelial function.
As cerebrovascular disease is known to progress asymptomatically in the early stages of Fabry disease, a cohort of patients from families with the classical phenotype were studied with functional transcranial Doppler. The authors concluded that Fabry disease patients of both genders, without prior history of stroke or transient ischemic attack, may have disturbed neurovascular coupling in the visual cortex, as well as decreased resting posterior cerebral artery BFV. These findings support the role of functional TCD, along with duplex ultrasound and MR techniques, in the evaluation of these patients, since early stages of disease [4]. Finally, interesting findings seem to show that cerebral blood flow regulation may reflect the neurological dysfunction caused by cerebral microvascular disease [22, 23]. Data from the MOBILIZE Boston study shows that changes in CBF velocity responses to an N-Back task to study the NVC was significantly associated with gait speed and that subjects with higher NVC were able to suppress the negative relationship between white matter hyperintensities and gait speed [23].

Color Doppler Flow Imaging (CDFI) and functional Transcranial Doppler (fTCD) are the neurosonological methods most frequently used for the assessment of a patient's vascular status, and the information obtained is helpful in the diagnosis of various forms of dementia.
CDFI may show evidence of impaired cerebral blood flow. Ultrasound parameters, intima-media thickness (IMT), circumferential arterial stiffness, resistance, and pulsatility indexes of the common carotid artery were found to be age-dependent. Thus, these parameters can be used to determine the actual vascular age of individuals [23, 17].

Transcranial Doppler also has a place in detecting asymptomatic spontaneous cerebral emboli (ASCE) which are common findings in patients with VaD and AD [28].
One of the most common sources of ASCE is carotid artery disease. Embolic signals are often detected by TCD of the middle cerebral arteries when monitored for a number of hours in most patients with symptomatic and severe stenosis [29]. Results of large emboli are stroke and transient ischaemic attack, but repeated small asymptomatic emboli over a long period of time may cause progressive cerebral damage. During open heart surgery or carotid surgery microemboli entering the cerebral circulation might cause memory loss and cognitive impairment. [30, 31] Valvular heart disease, atrial fibrillation and paradoxal embolisation of venous emboli into the arterial circulation may also result in ASCE [32, 33].

Repetitive
transcranial
magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was introduced as a therapeutic tool for improving the efficacy of rehabilitation for recovery after stroke.
In recent years, efforts have focused on investigating the neurophysiological changes that occur in the brain after stroke, and on developing novel strategies such as additional brain stimulation to enhance sensorimotor and cognitive recovery.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was introduced as a therapeutic tool for improving the efficacy of rehabilitation for recovery after stroke.
The current hypothesis is that disturbances of interhemispheric activities after stroke result in a pathological hyperactivity of the intact hemisphere. The rationale of using rTMS as a complementary therapy is mainly to decrease the cortical excitability in regions that are presumed to hinder optimal recovery by lowfrequency rTMS delivered to the unaffected hemi-

sphere, while high-frequency rTMS delivered to the affected hemisphere facilitates cortical excitability. There is a growing body of research in stroke patients investigating the effect of rTMS on facilitating recovery by modifying cortical and subcortical networks. Altogether, in combination with conventional therapeutic approaches, rTMS has a potential to become a complementary strategy to enhance stroke recovery by modulating the excitability of targeted brain areas. Today it is not clear which parameters (frequency, burst pattern, stimulation time etc) are optimizing the beneficial effects of rTMS on stroke recovery.
Similar discussion are held in the literature about the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS).

The patency of the bone windows depends on several factors: bone thickness, patient age, gender, race and brain parenchyma. A thicker bone, old age, female gender, black race and brain atrophy make examinations more difficult. In these cases the signal can be enhanced by using ultrasound contrast agents.

2) and dampened flow signal (TIBI 3) are criteria for distal occlusion. Indirect criteria of intracranial arterial occlusion comprise high resistance in the feeding vessel or in the proximal segment of the occluded vessel, flow diversion and signs of collateralization. Analogously to intracranial occlusion, intracranial stenosis criteria are direct and indirect. Direct criteria include progressive focal increase of lood flow velocities in 2 50% stenosis or paradoxical velocity decrease with very severe stenosis, near-occlusion or diffuse intracranial disease. Indirect criteria, which are present only in very severe stenosis (>80%), are the same as for occlusion: high resistance in the feeding vessel or in the proximal segment of the stenotic vessel, flow diversion and signs of collateralization.

Transcranial
ultrasound can surely help by studying collaterals, testing for vasomotor reactivity and detecting emboli.
Once the anatomical diagnosis of an intracranial stenosis is made, it is crucial to understand the functional significance and the hemodynamic effects of the stenosis.
Transcranial ultrasound can surely help by studying collaterals, testing for vasomotor reactivity and detecting emboli.
In fact TCD/TCCS can provide real-time information on collateral flow and in case of vessel obstruction, activation of collateral pathways is very important for the clinical outcome of the patient. A complete circle of Willis and the possibility to activate primary collaterals (anterior communicating artery, posterior communicating artery) or secondary collaterals (ophthalmic artery, leptomeningeal arteries) reduces the risk of hemodynamic ischemic stroke. Sometimes we see a compensatory increase of blood flow velocity in the donor vessel due to recruitment of collaterals by vasodilation in tissues with compromised perfusion. This is called flow diversion and represents a natural steal by vessels distal to an arterial occlusion.

Microembolic signal (MES) detection identifies patients who are at higher risk of atheroembolic stroke, thus allowing to select those patients who could benefit from a more aggressive treatment. MES are also valid surrogate markers for verifying antithrombotic efficacy and a key for individualized stroke medicine.

cium channel blockers for vasospasm, antiplatelet agents for dissection, immunosuppressants for vasculitis, intensive risk factor management and dual antiplatelet treatment for ICAS. In patients with recurrent symptoms despite best medical therapy, ultrasound can detect a possible progression of the stenosis, exclude a branch occlusion, check for a possible increase of the embolic count downstream. The SAMMPRIS study has shown that early aggressive medical therapy is better than stenting for prevention of recurrent stroke. Nevertheless, there are subgroups of patients who remain at high risk of stroke despite aggressive medical therapy.
In these patients, angioplasty alone or in combination with new stent types might still be an option, and transcranial ultrasound can quickly assess vessel patency by recording intracranial arterial hemodynamics changes post-operatively.
In particular, due to the metal composition of the stent, TCCS can clearly display the stent, thereby determining the location and shape of it. When the treatment is effective, there is a significant and immediate decrease of blood flow velocities; after about a week, owing to the reshaping of the stent and vascular remodeling, there is a further improvement in hemodynamics with velocity values declining toward normal. A regular follow-up of these patients is advisable in order to confirm the efficacy of stenting and to detect residual stenosis or in-stent restenosis. Finally, it is important to underline that

The alterations in the cerebral circulation are examined mainly with
transcranial
Doppler sonography or magnetic resonance imaging.
The cerebral vasomotor reactivity (VMR) indicates the ability of the cerebral arterioles to change their vascular tone under external stimuli. Greatest influence on the VMR exert age, endothelial functions and blood rheological properties. The most frequent influences are inhalatory induced changes in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and infusion of acetazolamide.
The alterations in the cerebral circulation are examined mainly with transcranial Doppler sonography or magnetic resonance imaging.
In patients with carotid stenoses and cerebral infarctions and also in other diseases the estimation of the VMR is important for evaluating the pathogenetic mechanisms and the clinical outcome and for selecting the therapeutic behavior in these patients.

B-mode sonography (TCS) enables visualization of different tissue echogenicity, which can be associated with changes in cerebral metabolism of various metals, one of potential mechanisms of brain damage in CJD.
The diagnosis of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is still made on clinical grounds, with rapidly progressive dementia and electroencephalogram (EEG) changes as hallmarks, while definite confirmation requires neuropathological evaluation. Several publications demonstrated that signal increase in the cerebral cortex, caudate nucleus and putamen on diffusionweighted imaging (DWI) and fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful in diagnosis of sporadic CJD.

Transcranial
Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) can be used to identify the presence of cerebral microembolic signals.
Carotid Color Doppler sonography (CDS) can determine degree of stenosis, which is the most important factor in determining the risks associated with carotid stenosis [4]. Heterogeneous plaques are hypoechoic on CDS, unstable and connected with a higher stroke risk [5]. Patients with progressively increasing stenosis are at highest risk for adverse events in the cerebral, coronary and peripheral vasculature.
Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) can be used to identify the presence of cerebral microembolic signals.
Patients positive for embolic signals are more likely to experience ipsilateral stroke (5.6 times) [6].

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a relatively new, non-invasive tool, allowing for bedside monitoring to determine flow velocities indicative of changes in vascular caliber.
It has been frequently employed for the clinical evaluation of cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). To a lesser degree, TCD has also been used to evaluate cerebral autoregulatory capacity, monitor cerebral circulation during cardiopulmonary bypass and carotid endarterectomy, to diagnose brain death and for monitoring of cerebral hemodynamics in neurotrauma. TCD is a suitable bedside method for daily assessment of the changes of intracranial pressure (ICP) by continuous monitoring of the changes of blood flow velocities and pulsatility index (PI), reflecting decreases in cerebral perfusion pressure due to increases in ICP. Growing body of literature demonstrates the usefulness of transbulbar B-mode sonography of the optic nerve for detecting increased ICP in patients requiring neurocritical care. TCD findings compatible with the diagnosis of brain death include systolic spikes without diastolic flow or with diastolic reversed flow, and no demonstrable flow in a patient in who flow had been clearly documented on a previous examination.

Transcranial
Color Doppler (TCCD) modalities.
The results of several studies have demonstrated that adequate collateral circulation may prevent the development of hemodynamic failure. In contrast, findings from different studies showed that the presence of leptomeningeal collateral flow was associated with an increased risk of future ischemic stroke [1, 4–6]. The actual contribution of the individual collateral pathways is difficult to assess and quantify. Assessment of cerebral hemodynamics can be performed with different techniques.

Transcranial B-mode sonography (TCS) is a non-invasive, low-cost, short-duration neuroimaging method that allows high-resolution imaging of deep brain structures in patients with movement disorders.
With contemporary high-end ultrasound systems, image resolution of echogenic deep brain structures can even be higher on TCS than on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Hyperechogenicity of the substantia nigra (SN), a TCS finding seen in about 90% of patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD), is already present in presymptomatic disease stages and indicates an increased risk of developing PD, especially if present in combination with other risk markers. The TCS finding of SN hyperechogenicity well discriminates PD from other Parkinsonian disorders such as multiple-system atrophy and welding-related Parkinsonism. In turn, normal SN echogenicity in combination with lenticular nucleus hyperechogenicity indicates an atypical Parkinsonian syndrome rather than PD with a specificity of more than 95%. TCS detects characteristic basal ganglia changes also in other movement disorders such as lenticular nucleus hyperechogenicity in idiopathic dystonia and Wilson's disease and caudate nucleus hyperechogenicity in Huntington's disease.

B-mode sonography (TCS) of the brain parenchyma is a non-invasive neuroimaging method that allows high-resolution imaging of deep brain structures in patients with degenerative brain diseases [8].
Transcranial B-mode sonography (TCS) of the brain parenchyma is a non-invasive neuroimaging method that allows high-resolution imaging of deep brain structures in patients with degenerative brain diseases [8].
Beside transtemporal axial and coronal imaging planes also transfrontal sagittal planes can be applied for special diagnostic purposes [9]. Hyperechogenicity of substantia nigra (SN), found in about 90% of patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD), is already present in presymptomatic disease stages. The results of longitudinal studies suggest that TCS of SN may serve as a screening tool for detecting subjects at risk of developing PD [2, 3]. Studies of our and other groups show that the combination of TCS with simple olfaction and motor tests already at very early disease stages discriminates PD from other Parkinsonian disorders. In turn, normal SN echogenicity in combination with lenticular nucleus hyperechogenicity indicates an atypical Parkinsonian syndrome rather than PD with a specificity of more than 95% [2, 10].

The aim of our study was to assess the feasibility of microembolic signal (MES) detection by
transcranial
Doppler (TCD) in cryptogenic stroke patients and to investigate the relationship between MES and stroke mechanism.
Despite all diagnostic efforts, about 30% of ischemic strokes remain cryptogenic.

Transcranial
Doppler (TCD) is a safe and sensitive technique for real-time detection of microembolic signals (MES) in the intracranial cerebral arteries.
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a safe and sensitive technique for real-time detection of microembolic signals (MES) in the intracranial cerebral arteries.
MES have been defined as short lasting (3 dB) transients within the Doppler frequency spectrum; they appear randomly during the cardiac cycle and produce a “whistle”, “chirp”, or “click” sound when passing through the sample volume; they have been proven to represent microemboli passing within cerebral arteries [24, 14, 7, 5, 22, 36]. Since its first application in the field of cerebrovascular diseases in the late 1990s, MES detection improved in several technical aspects, such as reliability of automated MES count and exclusion of artifacts during continuous TCD monitoring [3, 27, 1, 2, 18]. MES have been detected in a large number of clinical conditions, such as carotid artery stenosis (especially due to unstable plaques) [25, 21, 31, 20, 19, 38, 23, 29], aortic arch plaques [25, 6], cardiac sources of cerebral embolism (i.e. atrial fibrillation, prosthetic heart valves, valvular thrombosis) [6, 4, 17, 12], patent foramen ovale (PFO) [32, 33], and during carotid surgery and endovascular procedures (i.e. stent implantation) [16, 26, 35, 34].

All patients underwent a complete diagnostic workup: cerebral CT/MRI at admission, extracranial colorcoded duplex sonography, transcranial colorcoded sonography (TCCS), CT angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) if CTA was contraindicated, 24-hours cardiac monitoring, trans-thoracic echocardiography (TTE) completed by trans-esophageal echocardiography (TEE) if appropriate, and coagulation studies.
Diagnosis of right-to-left shunt (RLS) was made by contrastenhanced TCCS (cTCCS) performed at rest and after Valsalva maneuver, and the presence of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) was confirmed by a contrast TTE or TEE; RLS was graded according to the number of bubbles detected by cTCCS: low-grade (1-10 MES), medium-grade (>10 MES), high-grade (shower or curtain effect). During hospitalization, the vital parameters of all enrolled patients were continuously monitored for the first 72 hours in order to detect and treat any alteration in heart rate, heart rhythm, respiratory dynamics, oxyhemoglobin saturation, arterial blood pressure and body temperature. A 24-hours brain MRI/CT was performed along with a brain MRI just before hospital discharge.

The settings of the sonograph (Spencer ST3 Power M-mode Transcranial Doppler, Spencer Technologies, Redmond WA, USA) were appropriately adjusted to maximize the possibility of detection and the safety for long ultrasound exposure.
Automated MES counting software was activated, but an operator was always present throughout the monitoring period to exclude artifacts and to reposition the probes if necessary. All examinations were performed with the patient in supine position by an experienced neurosonographer (A.P.). MES detection was also performed in 30 young healthy adults (10 males, mean age 28.1±7 years) without history of cerebrovascular or cardiac disease, without any vascular risk factors and not taking any drugs.

The present article summarizes the use of
transcranial
Doppler in selection of high-risk ACAS patients who may benefit from carotid intervention.
From the one hand previous studies proved benefit from carotid intervention in ACAS patients, from the other hand due to the development of modern medical therapy there has been a significant reduction in stroke incidence in patients with only medical treatment. Recent calculations have suggested that the stroke risk with intensive medical therapy is lower or similar compared with that of carotid endarterectomy or carotid artery stenting in ACAS patients. Therefore, carotid reconstruction for the most patients with asymptomatic severe internal carotid artery stenosis has not been suggested recently. However, some special subgroups with high stroke risk were shown to benefit from carotid surgery. High-risk patients are characterised by poor collateral circulation with exhausted cerebrovascular reserve capacity, or by unstable plaque with cerebral microembolisation.

Transcranial
Doppler (TCD) is an easy, noninvasive, relatively cheap tool to investigate the reactivity of cerebral microvessels to vasodilative stimuli (cerebral vasoreactivity), and thus it is able to assess the compensatory vasodilation of cerebral arterioles [1, 3, 10, 20, 23].
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is an easy, noninvasive, relatively cheap tool to investigate the reactivity of cerebral microvessels to vasodilative stimuli (cerebral vasoreactivity), and thus it is able to assess the compensatory vasodilation of cerebral arterioles [1, 3, 10, 20, 23].
It should be mentioned that flow velocity is monitored in the main intracranial arteries (mostly in the middle cerebral artery), while the vasodilative stimuli change the diameter of the small resistance vessels (Fig. 1). TCD is an excellent method to detect cerebral microemboli as well [9, 11]. Unilateral presence of microembolic signals in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) indicates artery-to-artery embolisms from unstable carotid plaque. In addition, carotid ultrasound may also help differentiate high-risk and low-risk plaques in the internal carotid artery. Carotid plaques with irregular surface, intraplaque haemorrhage, decreased echogenicity and without echogenic cap belong to high-risk plaques.

By means of
transcranial
ultrasound sonography (TCD, 2 MHz probe, head fixation) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), the cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) was recorded and the mean CBFV was calculated.
We investigated 25 consecutive patients a few month after implantation of a LVAD in our rehabilitation department.
By means of transcranial ultrasound sonography (TCD, 2 MHz probe, head fixation) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), the cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) was recorded and the mean CBFV was calculated.
Patients were first recorded in supine positon and then brought into standing position. We measured the mean CBFV after standing up and registered any symptoms ranging from dizziness to even postural control failures.

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is also useful for evaluation of the efficacy of pharmacotherapy not only in subarachnoid bleeding but also in ischemic stroke risk patients.
The microembolic signals are accepted surrogate marker for future stroke risk and have been used to show treatment efficacy in different clinical conditions (TIA, carotid stenosis, carotid endarterectomy, coronary bypass surgery and during some intravascular interventions). The randomized trials successfully evaluated the effect of different anticoagulants (e.g. heparin vs. LMWH), mono vs dual antiplatelet therapy in stroke or stroke risk patients.

The publications are predominantly devoted to orthostatic hypotension, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and vasovagal syncope as the main OI clinical manifestations. Only few authors analyze the importance of the anti-gravity mechanisms for their occurrence. Cardiological tests and various modifications of the passive orthostatic test are mostly used in the assessment of OI.
