Comparison of Regional Cerebral Blood Flow and Computerized Tomography in Patients with Cerebrovascular Disease and Brain Tumors

  • Chapter
Cranial Computerized Tomography

Abstract

Since the introduction of CT as a noninvasive technique for brain imaging, several reports have discussed its merits as opposed to conventional neuroradiologic diagnostic procedures. To our knowledge, however, no data have been presented until now, that have included into comparative methodological analysis the technique of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) as well. It is the purpose of this study to comparer CBF and CT in patients presenting with cerebrovascular disease and in a smaller group of patients with brain tumors.
