  • Title: Resting CBF sequential study during recovery from aphasia due to ischemic stroke.
    Author: Demeurisse G, Verhas M, Capon A.
    Journal: Neuropsychologia; 1984; 22(2):241-6. PubMed ID: 6728187.
    Abstract:
    Cerebral blood flow (133Xenon inhalation method) has been studied in 30 aphasic stroke patients at 15, 30, 60 and 90 days after onset. In total aphasia the CBF values are low and the regional hypoperfused areas are extensive. In Broca's, Wernicke's and nominal aphasias, resting CBF measurements do not provide the clinician with useful additional information and clinical improvement can by no means be attributed to a resting CBF rise during the observation period.
