In the management of craniosynostosis, there is a need for quantitative assessment of treatment methods and outcome. Radiology and pressure studies are well documented, but so far little attention has been given to cerebral blood flow changes and their possible relevance. This paper reports our init

Impairment of cerebral blood flow (CBF) autoregulation may have serious implications for patients with cirrhosis if arterial hypotension occurs during coma, anesthesia, bleeding, or sepsis. In this study, CBF autoregulation was investigated in patients with cirrhosis with no or mild encephalopathy.
## Abstract Increased pulsatility of blood flow in the basal cerebral arteries recorded with the use of transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) corresponds to increased intracranial pressure (ICP) to near the level of the diastolic arterial blood pressure. We describe the case of a 39βyearβold woman
