Cerebrovascular reserve (CVR) by both transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) and quantitative cerebral blood flow (CBF) can identify subgroups of patients at increased risk for stroke. A direct comparison of CVR measurements obtained with both technologies in patients with cerebrovascular occlusive disease is lacking.
