RESUMEN
En la actualidad el ultrasonido permite obtener en forma no invasiva imágenes de la mayoría de estructuras. A nivel cerebral, se puede acceder a la vasculatura y evaluar la hemodinamia. Es un estudio seguro, no utiliza radiación y se puede realizar a la cabecera del paciente, las veces necesarias, hasta en monitoreo continuo. La limitación es que necesita un operador y cerca del 5-20 % de las personas poseen ventanas óseas temporales poco accesibles, por el grosor del hueso. Durante la realización del Doppler transcraneal, se debe seguir una serie de pasos. Tras localizar los vasos esperados, según la ventana y profundidad, se siguen las ondas espectrales en al menos dos puntos en cada arteria y se miden las velocidades de cada una. El objetivo de esta revisión es describir las generalidades del doppler transcraneal y destacar las principales utilidades como herramienta diagnóstica en enfermedades cerebrovasculares y otras enfermedades neurológicas.
ABSTRACT
At present, ultrasound allows images of most structures to be obtained non-invasively. At the brain level, the vasculature can be accessed and hemodynamics evaluated. It is a safe study, it does not use radiation and it can be performed at the patient's bedside, as often as necessary, even under continuous monitoring. The limitation is that it requires an operator and about 5-20% of people have temporary bone windows that are not very accessible, due to the thickness of the bone. During the performance of the transcranial Doppler, a series of steps must be followed. After locating the expected vessels, according to the window and depth, the spectral waves are followed at at least two points in each artery and the velocities of each one are measured. The objective of this review is to describe the generalities of transcranial doppler and highlight the main uses as a diagnostic tool in cerebrovascular diseases and other neurological diseases.
