[Observation on therapeutic effect of eye acupuncture on cognition disorders in patients of chronic cerebral circulation insufficiency]

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of eye acupuncture on cognition disorders in patients of chronic cerebral circulation insufficiency (CCCI). METHODS: Sixty cases were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 30 ... Read more...

Carotid endarterectomy improves cerebrovascular reserve capacity preferentially in patients with preoperative impairment as indicated by asymmetric BOLD response to hypercapnia.

7 Sep 2009 PURPOSE: In patients with symptomatic carotid artery disease the predominant mechanism causing ischaemic injury is considered to be thromboembolic, however compromise of cerebral haemodynamics is considered to be a significant factor. Removal of the ... Read more...

Separating function from structure in perfusion imaging of the aging brain.

30 Aug 2009 The accuracy of cerebral blood flow (CBF) imaging in humans has been impeded by the partial volume effects (PVE), which are a consequence of the limited spatial resolution. Because of brain atrophy, PVE can be particularly problematic in imaging the ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Cerebrovascular Disorders'

Definition: A spectrum of pathological conditions of impaired blood flow in the brain. They can involve vessels (ARTERIES; or VEINS) in the CEREBRUM, the CEREBELLUM, and the BRAIN STEM. Major categories include INTRACRANIAL ARTERIOVENOUS MALFORMATIONS; BRAIN ISCHEMIA; CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE; and others.
