Cognitive decline becomes more prevalent than ever in parallel with the increasing life
expectancy of the population. Alzheimer'disease (AD) and cerebral vascular lesions are …

Multiresolution analysis using the wavelet transform has received considerable attention in
recent years by researchers in various fields. It is a powerful tool for efficiently representing …

Transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) is used to assess cerebral blood flow velocity in
basal cerebral arteries and is a common tool for the diagnosis and follow-up of …

Background and Purpose—Although cerebral microemboli are often detected by
transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in mechanical heart valve patients, the clinical …

Robust detection of the smallest circulating cerebral microemboli is an efficient way of
preventing strokes, which is second cause of mortality worldwide. Transcranial Doppler …

Abstract The Transcranial Doppler ultrasound can be used to detect asymptomatic
circulating cerebral emboli. Emboli indicate particles that can plug the arterial system …

A new embolus detection system (EDS) is presented, built with the intention of detecting
ongoing cerebral embolization in patients at risk of transient ischaemic attacks or stroke. It is …

Ultrasound transcranial Holter offers the possibility of long-duration recordings with the
micro-emboli detection process being performed offline. This offline detection allows …

Postoperative Doppler embolic signals following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) are
associated with an increased risk of stroke, but the characteristics of these signals are rarely …
