Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate color velocity imaging-quantitative method (CVI-Q) in estimating cerebral hemodynamic change in patients with cerebral infarction. Methods: The carotids of 60 normal people and 40 cerebral infarction patients were detected by CVI-Q. We observed endangium thickness and atheromatous plaques,and measured the diameter (d), peak velocity(Vmax), resistance index(RI) and blood flow volume(Q) of the common carotid arteries. Results: In cerebral infarction group there were 75% cases with endangium thickening to different degrees, 45% cases with atheromatous plaques and 71% plaques in carotid enlargement section or bifurcation. The data measured in 2 groups were compared: (1)The d value in cerebral infarction cases increased than that in normal（P<0.05 or P<0.01）; (2)The Vmax reduced in cerebral infarction cases(P<0.05); (3)The RI increased in cerebral infarction cases (P<0.05 or P< 0.01); (4) The Q value reduced in cerebral infarction cases (P<0.01). Conclusion: CVI-Q can be used for detecting cerebral hemodynamic changes and provide quantitative indexes for clinicians to estimate ischemia degree and treatment in cerebral infarction patients.
