[Morphofunctional state of main arteries of the head in patients with ischemic stroke during rehabilitation].
Findings of the transcranial ultrasound duplex scanning method given to patients (99 patients aged from 60 to 74 years) who had had ischemic stroke in carotid territory showed that the frequency of different degree of vessel structure formation located on homolateral side to the lesion focus doesn't depend on hemispheric localization of old ischemic stroke. Combined stenoses of carotid and vertebrobasilar vessels were diagnosed twofold in patients with ischemic lesion in the left hemisphere of the brain.
