[Detection of the pathology of the major cerebral arteries in transient disorders of cerebrovascular circulation using Doppler ultrasonography].

One hundred and six males aged 40-59 were examined generally, neurologically and using ultrasonic dopplerography within one month following an emergency call for transitory ischemic attacks, hypertensive cerebral crises. Ultrasound signs of arterial lesions were recorded in 79.2% of the examinees. Hemodynamic disturbances occurred most frequently (50.9%). Arterial stenosis was diagnosed in 27.4% of cases. With growing number of risk factors, the incidence of major arteries lesions was on the increase.
