Global cerebral blood flow (CBF) is an important yet largely unknown quantity in the treatment of neurological intensive care patients. Color duplex sonography of the extracranial cerebral arteries can be used to measure global CBF volume directly at the bedside. To establish reference data on global CBF volume and to test the influence of sex and age on this parameter, a prospective study was performed in a group of 78 healthy adults aged 20 to 85 years (39 women, 39 men; mean age, 52+/-19 years in either sex).
