“…Contraction of the arterial wall can produce a severe narrowing of the artery, which, in turn, can produce ischaemic neurologic deficits. TCCD can be useful in detecting and monitoring the changes in flow velocities associated with vasospasm . Detection of vasospasm helps with the timing and need for neurosurgical or endovascular therapies and can subsequently assist in monitoring the efficacy of interventions …”

Transcranial colour-coded duplex (TCCD) is a non-invasive ultrasound technique that assesses blood flow within the large arteries of the circle of Willis. In the clinical sonography world, it can be considered a relatively recent technique that is useful to assess cerebral haemodynamics in a variety of conditions. This article covers the anatomy of the circle of Willis, TCCD scanning and information on some common pathologies TCCD may be used to assess. It is important the sonographer is aware of TCCD imaging and of the intricacies involved in the technique. Funding: None. Conflict of interest: None. Sonography 4 156-165
