Abstract
Intracranial hemodynamics that change after the cervical or intracranial occlusion of the carotid artery until now have been investigated by angiography or by cerebral blood flow measurements (xenon). Using transcranial Doppler sonography, we are now preoperatively able to determine flow velocities and flow directions of the larger vessels of the circle of Willis. Postoperatively, the hemodynamic effect of the bypass on cerebral vessel circulation can be investigated by compressing the donor artery. Our experiences after using this method of investigation for one year are described on the basis of 20 patients with occlusion of the carotid artery.
