Abstract
Primary degenerative dementia of the Alzheimer type and multiinfarct dementia exhibit differences in cerebrovascular blood flow velocity profiles, which were investigated by transcranial Doppler sonography. The pulsatility indices, as angle-independent parameters of peripheral vascular resistence, measured in middle cerebral and basilar arteries of patients with multiinfarct dementia were significantly increased (p less than 0.005) compared with cases of primary degenerative dementia of the Alzheimer type and with healthy age-matched controls.Entities:
