Abstract
Transcranial Doppler Sonography (TCDS) is a well-established method for detecting changes in flow velocities in basal cerebral arteries following subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, conclusions on cerebral blood flow cannot be directly drawn from such TCDS findings. In addition, recent investigations have shown further restrictions because of discrepancies between Doppler findings and patients’ neurological status [1–3].
