Transcranial color-coded duplex Doppler sonography (TCCD) is a commonly used tool
in human medicine for neuro-intensive monitoring (
Rasulo and Bertuetti, 2019
). TCCD allows obtaining and analyzing Doppler flow curve of the artery under evaluation
and identifying the systolic peak flow velocity (Vp) and end-diastolic flow velocity
(Ved), measures used to calculate the resistance index (RI) using the formula:
RI = (Vp – Ved) / Vp
