RESUMO
Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging play an important role in the diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease, but only in the morphological aspect. To assess changes in cerebral perfusion are necessary functional images techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). By these methods we can evaluate the cerebral hemodynamics to better understand the significance of chronic ischemia as a stroke risk factor for patients with carotid stenosis. A case of improvement of cerebral blood flow demonstrated by SPECT after carotid revascularization in a young woman with Takayasu's disease is described.
