Also, episodes of epileptic state refractory to phenobarbital treatment were found. rCBF SPECT scanning was performed using a triple-head gamma-camera Multiispect-3 (Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) 60 min. after i.v. applicati...
متن کاملRegional cerebral blood flow in chronic hypertension. A correlative study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral hypoperfusion has occasionally been reported during essential hypertension. We explored regional cerebral blood flow in a large series of neurologically asymptomatic hypertensive patients to determine relations among cerebral blood flow, concomitant main vascular risk factors, and the most common signs of end-organ damage. METHODS Regional cerebral blood flow w...
متن کاملAltered Regional Cerebral Blood Flow in Chronic Whiplash Associated Disorders
There is increasing evidence of central hyperexcitability in chronic whiplash-associated disorders (cWAD). However, little is known about how an apparently simple cervical spine injury can induce changes in cerebral processes. The present study was designed (1) to validate previous results showing alterations of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in cWAD, (2) to test if central hyperexcitabili...
متن کاملRegional cerebral blood flow in chronic stroke patients.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate regional cerebral blood flow parameters during the postacute phase of unilateral ischemic stroke and to correlate them with clinical data. METHODS Regional cerebral blood flow was measured in 187 patients in the stabilized phase of stroke by the xenon-133 inhalation method with 32 extracranial detectors. Thirty-eight patients wer...
متن کاملRegional cerebral blood flow in chronic stroke patients with dementia.
Cerebral atrophy and regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) were examined in 52 chronic stroke patients with dementia, pre-dementia or non-dementia (according to the Dementia Scale). The index of cerebral atrophy was estimated on computed tomography, and CBF was determined using 133Xe inhalation method. Cerebral atrophy indices were not significantly different among various degrees of dementia exce...
