[Cerebral blood flow in neurotic depression: results of ultrasonic dopplerography].

Using the method of ultrasonic dopplerography, authors have investigated the cerebral blood flow in main arteries of the head on extra- and intracranial levels in 83 patients, aged from 20 to 50 years, with depression (ICD-10 codes F32-F33). Different clinical presentations, duration and severity of depression were described. Correlations between these characteristics and the state of cerebral blood flow and changes of sympathoadrenal system were found.
