Key result
This is a protocol for a systematic review to assess the diagnostic accuracy of TCD and TCCD for detecting stenosis and occlusion of intracranial large arteries in acute ischaemic stroke.
Why the study?
What is the diagnostic accuracy of transcranial Doppler sonography for detecting stenosis or occlusion of intracranial arteries in people with acute ischaemic stroke?
Systematic Review
What is the diagnostic accuracy of transcranial Doppler sonography for detecting stenosis or occlusion of intracranial arteries in people with acute ischaemic stroke?
This is a protocol for a systematic review to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of transcranial Doppler sonography for detecting intracranial artery stenosis or occlusion in acute ischemic stroke.
Diagnostic accuracy of TCD/TCCD for intracranial stenosis in acute ischaemic stroke remains unknown; protocol will enable first pooled synthesis.
This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows: assess the diagnostic accuracy of TCD and TCCD for detecting stenosis and occlusion of intracranial large arteries in people with acute ischaemic stroke. will assess the accuracy of different thresholds of mean flow velocity or peak systolic velocity, or both, in the grading of intracranial artery stenosis.

Mattioni et al. (2013) conducted a systematic review in acute ischaemic stroke. Transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD and TCCD) was evaluated on Diagnostic accuracy for detecting stenosis and occlusion of intracranial large arteries. This is a protocol for a systematic review to assess the diagnostic accuracy of TCD and TCCD for detecting stenosis and occlusion of intracranial large arteries in acute ischaemic stroke.
