Diagnostic protocol by ocular transpalpebral doppler of the ophthalmic artery in patients with cerebrovascular disease

Introduction: The incidence of cerebrovascular diseases is related to the atherosclerotic process, which increases exponentially with age according to studies. Objective: To propose a diagnostic protocol by transpalpebral ocular Doppler in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Methodology: The research design is descriptive with a mixed approach. An initial diagnosis was made of the state of the application of ophthalmic artery Doppler ultrasound in patients with cerebrovascular disease through a survey applied to 13 imaging specialists belonging to the "Lucia Iñiguez Landín" Clinical Surgical Hospital that showed that specialists do not apply a diagnostic protocol in care settings. Results: The proposed diagnostic protocol interprets from Imaging the usefulness of the transpalpebral Doppler of the ophthalmic artery not only as a selective exploration test, but also as a , but also as an instrument to assess the extent and severity of cerebrovascular disease. The proposed diagnostic protocol reveals the relevance of the proposed diagnostic protocol, taking into account the fundamental relationships that are established between the scientific method and the care practice. Conclusions: the solution route offers a new look at the training of medical imaging professionals in a given historical context and its transformation in correspondence with scientific and technological advances.
