Synopsis

This book is based on papers presented at the 26th Annual Scientific Conference of the Biological Engineering Society, which brought together practising specialists to discuss developments in techniques for studying cerebral circulation and their application to clinical problems. Its contents reflect the pre-eminence of radio-active tracer methods for tissue perfusion measurements and Doppler ultrasound for non-invasive assessment of major blood vessels, and highlight new developments within both of these fields. The measurement of blood flow in the brain and the detection of potentially stroke-inducing disease in its supply vessels is important to improving diagnosis and subsequent monitoring of the treatment. The complex nature of the techniques used necessitates collaboration between clinicians, scientists and bioengineers.
