Transcranial Doppler Detection of Circulating Cerebral Emboli
Background: The identification of gaseous emboli using Doppler ultrasound was described as early as the 1960s. Recently it has been demonstrated that this method can also detect solid emboli such as thrombi and platelet aggregates. This may make this technology useful in a large number of patients with, or at risk of, embolic stroke. Summary of Review: Emboli appear as short-duration, high-inte...

متن کاملTranscranial doppler detection of fat emboli.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The fat embolism syndrome (FES) is characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of pulmonary and neurological symptoms as well as skin and mucosal petechiae in the setting of long-bone fractures or their surgical repair. Its pathophysiology is poorly understood, and effective treatments are lacking. We present 5 patients with long-bone fractures in whom in vivo microembol...

متن کاملDetection of middle cerebral emboli during coronary artery bypass surgery using transcranial Doppler sonography.
Detection of Middle Cerebral Emboli During Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery Using Transcranial Doppler Sonography To the Editor: Spencer et al recently described the use of transcranial Doppler sonography to record the passage of emboli through the middle cerebral artery (MCA) during carotid endarterectomy. They recorded transient signals at the time of releasing common carotid cross clamps and i...
