Summary
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a non-invasive procedure that is increasingly used for diagnostic and prognostic purposes in patients with an acute stroke. In addition, TCD enhances the effect of thrombolysis by exposing thrombi surfaces to circulating rTPA. However, insonation problems through acoustic windows limit the diagnostic efficiency of TCD.
