“…The etiology of SCI is complex and likely multifactorial (Debaun, Derdeyn, & McKinstry, 2006;Dowling, Quinn, Rogers, & Buchanan, 2010), but recent research has proposed a strong association with tissue-level hypoperfusion (Bernaudin et al, 2015). As such, the lack of relationship between SCI and TCD measurements potentially arises from an inability to detect changes in tissue-level cerebral blood flow (CBF) using TCD measures of BFV MCA .…”
