Reliability of Doppler sonography in extracranial cerebro-vascular stenosis

E J Colon et al. Clin Neurol Neurosurg. 1979.

Abstract

Of our patients who underwent quantitative Doppler sonography (Haemato-Tacho-Graphy), 382 underwent carotid angiography and 61 vertebral artery angiography. The reliability of the method proved to be between 90 and 95 percent for carotid as well as for vertebral arteries. The HTG proved to be a useful addition to angiography in patients with extracranial cerebro-vascular stenosis.
