A radiographic study of circulatory times of the cerebral blood flow.

The authors studied circulatory times of the cerebral blood flow by means of radiocirculography (RCG). The mean value of the RCG curve was 20 s in 27 examined control persons, 22 s (increase by 2 s) in 24 patients with light brain injury (commotio cerebri), 24 s (increase by 4 s) in 29 patients with severe injury (contusio cerebri et compressio cerebri), and 23 s (increase by 3 s) in 37 patients with brain tumor.
