Ischemic cerebrovascular diseases are important duet to the high incidence, disability, mortality, and recurrence. Intracranial arterial stenosis caused by atherosclerosis is an important pathological basis of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Therefore, convenient, non-invasive, cheap
and accurate screening methods have become the goal of everyone's joint efforts. The purpose of this study was to investigate the value of transcranial Doppler in judging arterial stenosis, and to explore the best cut-off point for assessing the blood flow velocity of middle cerebral artery
disease and the compensation of the posterior branch of middle cerebral artery disease. Using retrospective analysis, binomial logistic regression analysis was performed on risk factors related to ischemic cerebrovascular disease. The 60 patients with intracranial stenosis were selected for
TCD (Transcranial Color Doppler) and CTA (Computed Tomography Angiography) examinations within one week of onset. CTA was used as the diagnostic criterion to analyze the accuracy of TCD in the diagnosis of intracranial arterial disease. ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve was used
to determine the optimal cutoff point of blood flow velocity for MCA (Middle Cerebral Artery) lesions. TCD has high specificity and sensitivity in the diagnosis of intracranial arterial disease, and it can be widely used in clinic as a simple, convenient and cheap diagnostic method for screening
intracranial arterial stenosis.
