Transcranial Doppler sonography and the effect of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in sickle cell disease
Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most prevalent monogenetic diseases worldwide and one of the most serious complications is stroke. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) demonstrated to be highly predictive for an imminent stroke by measuring blood flow velocities in the basal cerebr...
