“…Attempts to quantify blood flow changes in the VAs on neck rotation, with the premise that large changes in flow might indicate greater biomechanical stress on the artery, have yielded conflicting findings. Some studies showing reduced flow on contralateral rotation, some with ipsilateral and others no change in either direction, sometimes despite positive VBI tests (Thiel, Wallace et al 1994, Haynes 1996, Rivett, Sharples et al 1999, Haynes and Milne 2001 Sakaguchi, Kitagawa et al 2003, Zaina, Grant et al 2003, Mitchell, Keene et al 2004, Sultan, Hartshorne et al 2009, Bowler, Shamley et al 2011, Quesnele, Triano et al 2014. Of the few studies that have examined blood flow in the ICAs, similarly conflicting findings have emerged (Sultan, Hartshorne et al 2009, Bowler, Shamley et al 2011.…”
