pubmed:abstractText |
A recent study using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) showed that low frequency oscillations of regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) decline with age. Using transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD), it is possible to monitor similar fluctuations in cerebral blood velocity (CBV) in basal cerebral vessels. Such oscillations have been used widely in the assessment of cerebral autoregulation. We postulated that it should be possible to observe similar age related reductions in the amplitude of slow waves recorded using TCD.
