Stepwise Improvement of Cerebral Hemodynamics in Staged Angioplasty for Carotid Artery Stenosis by Fumiaki OKA, Takayuki OKU, Akiko KAWANO, Koki OKAZAKI, Takuma NISHIMOTO, Mototsugu SHIMOKAWA, Hideyuki ISHIHARA

“…Although SAP is presumed to prevent CHS by gradually restoring cerebral blood flow (CBF), few studies have examined haemodynamic changes, and none have evaluated CBF during the chronic phase of SAP. In the present study, in addition to the clinical outcome of SAP, we measured both resting CBF and cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) throughout all stages of SAP, including the chronic phase, using quantitative N-isopropyl-p-[I-123] iodoamphetamine (123I-IMP) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and evaluated the effects of SAP on cerebral haemodynamics. …”
