The TCD test requires a small amount of saline solution with micro bubbles to be injected into a vein while brain activity is monitored. If any of the micro bubbles have reached the brain, this is an indication that unfiltered blood is circulating through the body. The number of micro bubbles that reach the brain can be accurately counted to determine how significant the abnormality is. 


Apart from the 'drip' in the arm or leg, it is a painless test that uses ultrasound to detect real time measures of blood flow velocity throughout certain parts of the vascular system in the brain. Recent studies have proven the TCD to be overwhelmingly more accurate, and has several advantages patients can enjoy such as: 


  1. Convenient outpatient test  
  2. Takes approximately 20 minutes 
  3. Affordable & Accurate 
  4. Estimates the physiological size of the hole. 
  5. Allows easy post op confirmation of closure
