FV 3 Functional transcranial Doppler (fTCD) during cold-induced pain in the oral cavity and ice cream headache

An increase of mean flow velocity (MFV) in cerebral arteries can be monitored during processing of visual information (Aaslid, 1987; Rihs et al., 1999), while speaking (Cupini et al., 1996), memory tasks (Vollmer-Haase et al., 1998) and movements of one hand (Orlandi and Murri, 1996) by functional transcranial Doppler (fTCD). The processing of sensitive information (Duschek et al., 2012) or pain (Mages et al., 2016) also leads to an increase in blood flow. Drinking ice-cold water can cause pain in the oral cavity and an ice cream headache (Mages et al., 2016).
