Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TCCS) enables visualization of the intracranial parenchymal structures and measurement of blood flow velocity in the basal cerebral arteries. The present study aims to evaluate prospectively the clinical usefulness of TCCS in patients with acute stroke. METHODS:Eighty-four consecutive patients with central nervous symptoms suggesting acute stroke were investigated within the first 48 hours after clinical onset. TCCS was performed with a 2.5-MHz sector transducer through the temporal bone window. CT was available in all patients. RESULTS:Forty-eight patients suffered from an infarction or a transient ischemic attack (TIA) in the territory of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). Fifteen of them showed an MCA occlusion, and 12 of the 15 developed recanalization during follow-up. Twelve revealed an increased, decreased, or oscillating flow pattern in the MCA main stem, and 21 patients had no ultrasonic abnormalities. The positive and negative predictive values of a pathological flow pattern in patients with MCA infarctions or TIA were .92 and .48, respectively. Fifteen patients suffered from an intracerebral hematoma, which could be diagnosed by TCCS in 14 cases. The positive and negative predictive values of a pathological parenchymal echo pattern were .88 and .96, respectively. Three patients suffered from an infarction and one from a TIA in the posterior cerebral artery territory. One female patient with an acute deterioration of a hemiparesis showed a glioma. The dropout rate due to an insufficient acoustic temporal bone window was 20% (17/84). CONCLUSIONS:TCCS is a noninvasive bedside method that provides rapid and reliable data regarding stroke subtype and mechanism immediately after onset. Window failure is a serious limitation of this method.
