Microembolic Signals Detected with Transcranial Doppler Sonography Differ between Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Middle Cerebral Artery Stenoses in Northeast China

Although microembolus monitoring has been widely used for ischemic cerebrovascular disease, the clinical significance of microembolic signal (MES) in asymptomatic middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis remains unclear. We aim to investigate the frequency of MES and the value of MES in predicting ischemic stroke secondary to asymptomatic MCA stenosis. From June 2011 to December 2012, microembolus...

Transcranial doppler sonography and CT angiography in patients with atherothrombotic middle cerebral artery stroke.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Atherothrombotic disease of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) frequently occurs in Asian populations. This abnormality can be noninvasively assessed with transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) and computed tomographic angiography (CTA). To our knowledge, the usefulness of TCD sonography compared with CTA in the diagnosis of nonembolic MCA disease has not been studied. MET...

Microembolic signals detected by transcranial Doppler sonography during carotid endarterectomy and correlation with serial diffusion-weighted imaging.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Embolic events are a major cause for procedure-related strokes after carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Transcranial Doppler sonography can reveal embolic events as microembolic signals (MES) during CEA. MES during declamping and shunting are frequently detected. MES during shunting are rare and known to be correlated with the neurological outcome of the patient. In the presen...

Detection and volume estimation of embolic air in the middle cerebral artery using transcranial Doppler sonography.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral embolism has been implicated in the development of cognitive and neurological deficits following bypass surgery. This study proposes methodology for estimating cerebral air embolus volume using transcranial Doppler sonography. METHODS Transcranial Doppler audio signals of air bubbles in the middle cerebral artery obtained from in vivo experiments were subjected...
