Boston, MA - Results of a randomized study suggest that the use of transcranial Doppler (TCD) can enhance the effects of thrombolysis with tPA in the setting of acute ischemic stroke. Researchers at ...
Dr. Zsolt Garami, medical director of the vascular ultrasound lab at Houston Methodist Hospital, puts it very straightforward: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is one of the least understood, rarely ...
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound is not only better than transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) at identifying patent foramen ovale (PFO), it also better predicts the risk of embolic events at 5 ...
CHI Memorial’s Stroke and Neuroscience Center participated in the national research study, BUBL, and was instrumental in developing novel technology that can better detect a specific cause of brain ...
The use of a robotic-assisted device to perform transcranial Doppler ultrasound greatly improved the detection of right-to-left cardiac shunts in patients with presumed embolic strokes compared with ...
ST. PAUL, Minn. – A new guideline developed by the American Academy of Neurology evaluates the use of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) to determine when use of the test leads to better ...
—Data published in Stroke show that NovaGuide was about three times more likely to detect right to left shunt (RLS) and large RLS than transthoracic echocardiography (TTE)— —NovaGuide, a ...
