Abstract

Morphological changes in microcirculation during vasospasm have not been fully evaluated. Several techniques evaluating microcirculation during cerebral ischemia can also be used in microcirculatory assessment of vasospasm. In this chapter, some of these techniques that seem available for vasospasm are introduced.
