Fig. 1From: Comparison between intracranial collaterals and cerebral hemodynamics in patients with extracranial carotid stenosis versus combined extra- and intracranial stenosis using transcranial duplexPSV in both groups. Regarding those 30 patients with acute stroke, cerebral hemodynamics were assessed by transcranial Doppler by the assessment of both PSV and EDV in ipsilateral MCAs; in the 15 patients with extracranial stenosis, only one patient (6.67%) showed increased PSV over 160 cm/s, with mean 59.38 ± 22.25, while in 15 patients of both intracranial and extracranial stenosis, also only one patient (6.67%) showed increased PSV in MCA over 160 cm/s with mean 68.133 ± 26.963Back to article page
