Fig 1 TCD and EEG trends. (a) May 19, 2009, 01:00 p.m. Persistent cerebral blood flow on TCD (upper) and persistent low amplitude theta activity on EEG (lower). (b) May 20, 2009, 09:00 a.m. The EEG is flat, but TCD shows residual cerebral blood flow. (c) May 20, 2009, 03:00 p.m. TCD shows reverberating cerebral blood flow indicating cerebral circulatory arrest.
