Abstract

Ultrasonography is a noninvasive, repeteable and safe technique enabling assessment of location and patency of extra- and intracerebral arteries as well as evaluation of collateral circulaton in severe abnormalities of these vessels. Using ultrasonography allows monitoring changes in blood flow at different stages of the disease, during therapy, during and after endarterectomy.
