Abstract

The value of the clinical investigation of the brain’s arterial bed in cerebral ischemic disorders by microemboli injected into the brain arteriolar tree has been already reported (VERHAS et al., 1976, BORTOLUZZI et al., 1979). The present report deals with the significance of the pathologic patterns observed during Perfusional Brain Scanning (PBS) and with the role of this procedure in the assessment of the small lesions of the brain microcirculation. Importance has been assigned to this investigation in view of planning a surgical revascularization (BORTOLUZZI et al., 1977).
