02 March 2023
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) technology has been rapidly advancing in recent years, allowing for non-invasive monitoring of cerebral blood flow. Here are some of the latest advances in TCD technology: […]
Transcranial Doppler measures the velocity of blood flow through the brain’s blood vessels. This non-invasive test aids in diagnosing a range of medical conditions
Clinical Applications of Transcranial Doppler (TCD)
18 November 2021
Transcranial Doppler has a variety of clinical applications. The scan can be performed daily, at the bedside, in ICU, and involves no exposure to radiation, magnetic fields or contrast dyes. It is a far cheaper and easier logistically than CT, MRI or angiography
PAD testing can be used for differential diagnosis of ischaemic lower limb pain (claudication) from lower limb pain caused by other factors such as neurological and musculoskeletal conditions. The treadmill exercise ABI test is particularly useful for this purpose
