[Transcranial dopplerography in the combination with echopulsography in the assessment of intracranial and cerebral perfusion pressure in patients with intracranial hemorrhages].

Objective: To study the possibilities of common ultrasound diagnostic methods in the evaluation of intracranial pressure (ICP) and central perfusion pressure (CPP) and to search for the ways of increasing the accuracy of these methods.

Material And Methods: Thirty-eight patients, aged 28-66 years admitted to a neuroreanimation department of a hospital due to acute intracranial vascular and traumatic hemorrhages were examined. An instrumental study included transcranial dopplerography (TCDG) and digital echoencephalography.

[Instrumentation for ultrasound diagnosis of vascular diseases].

The paper describes the computer-based ultra-sound medical instruments worked out by the authors to diagnose the diseases and traumas of the brain, vessels, arteries and cerebral veins as well as of pathologies of the upper and lower extremities. The portable instruments are capable of four diagnostic methods: echoencephalography, echopulsegraphy as well as ultra-sound and transcranial Doppler-graphy.
