Detection of Cerebral Vasculopathy by Transcranial Doppler in Children With Neurofibromatosis Type 1

Sagica Fernandes Paschoal, Joelma Karin [UNIFESP]; Paschoal, Fernando Mendes, Jr.; de Lima, Fernanda Teresa [UNIFESP]; Pinho, Ricardo Silva [UNIFESP]; Pereira Vilanova, Luiz Celso [UNIFESP]; Bor-Seng-Shu, Edson; Masruha, Marcelo Rodrigues [UNIFESP] (Sage Publications Inc, 2016)

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is characterized by nerve sheath neurofibromas associated with a number of additional clinical features, including cerebrovascular disease. The aim of this study was to use transcranial Doppler as ...

Changes in Transcranial Doppler Flow Velocities in Children with Sickle Cell Disease: The Impact of Hydroxyurea Therapy

Adegoke, Samuel Ademola [UNIFESP]; Macedo-Campos, Rejane de Souza [UNIFESP]; Pellegrini Braga, Josefina Aparecida [UNIFESP]; Figueiredo, Maria Stella [UNIFESP]; Silva, Gisele Sampaio [UNIFESP] (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018)

Background and Objectives: Hydroxyurea (HU) was recently described as a substitute for chronic transfusion for children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and abnormal transcranial Doppler (TCD) velocities who have received ...

Brazilian guidelines for the application of transcranial ultrasound as a diagnostic test for the confirmation of brain death

Lange, Marcos C.; Zétola, Viviane H. F.; Miranda-Alves, Maramélia [UNIFESP]; Moro, Carla H. C.; Silvado, Carlos E.; Rodrigues, Daniela L. G. [UNIFESP]; Gregorio, Edilene Guiotti Di; Silva, Gisele Sampaio [UNIFESP]; Oliveira-Filho, Jamary; Perdatella, Marco T. A.; Pontes-Neto, Octávio M.; Fábio, Soraia R. C.; Avelar, Wagner M.; Freitas, Gabriel R. de (Academia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEURO, 2012-05-01)

Neurosonological studies, specifically transcranial Doppler (TCD) and transcranial color-coded duplex (TCCD), have high level of specificity and sensitivity and they are used as complementary tests for the diagnosis of ...

Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in adults with sickle cell disease

Valadi, N.; Silva, G. S.; Bowman, L. S.; Ramsingh, D.; Vicari, P.; Filho, A. C.; Massaro, A. R.; Kutlar, A.; Nichols, F. T.; Adams, R. J. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2006-08-22)

Background: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is used to select children with sickle cell disease (SCD) for primary stroke prevention using regular blood transfusion. Whether it can also identify high stroke risk in adults with ...
