The paper presents standards related to ultrasound imaging of the cerebral
vasculature and structures. The aim of this paper is to standardize both the
performance and description of ultrasound imaging of the extracranial and
intracranial cerebral arteries as well as a study of a specific brain structure,
i.e. substantia nigra hyperechogenicity. The following aspects are included in
the description of standards for each ultrasonographic method: equipment
requirements, patient preparation, study technique and documentation as well as
the required elements of ultrasound description. Practical criteria for the
diagnosis of certain pathologies in accordance with the latest literature were
also presented. Furthermore, additional comments were included in some of the
sections. Part I discusses standards for the performance, documentation and
description of different ultrasound methods (Duplex, Doppler). Part II and III
are devoted to standards for specific clinical situations (vasospasm, monitoring
after the acute stage of stroke, detection of a right-to-left shunts,
confirmation of the arrest of the cerebral circulation, an assessment of the
functional efficiency of circle of Willis, an assessment of the cerebrovascular
vasomotor reserve as well as the measurement of substantia nigra
hyperechogenicity).
