Case Analysis of Persistent Vasospasm after Cerebral Artery Aneurysm Rupture by Using Transcranial Color Coded Doppler Ultrasonography

Department of Radiological Science, Graduate School of Health Sciences, Cheongju University Abstract In this case analysis, a patient was diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in a 49-year-old female and showed persistent vasospasm after coil emboilzation in an aneurysm. The patient suffered from persistent vasospasm and performed angioplasty a total of 6 times. Transcranial color coded doppler (TCCD) was performed 12 times to monitor vasospasm. As a result, repetitive cerebral blood flow tests were low cost and safely performed without exposure to invasive radiation through the TCCD, and the repeatability and reproducibility of the test were confirmed with the capabilities of a trained professional radiological technologist.
