Studies conducted at the Medical College of Georgia (MCG) in the mid-1980's have shown that transcranial doppler (TCD) can identify children at high risk for stroke by detecting high flow rate in major intracranial arteries [ 8 9 ] . Children with flow velocities of 200 cm/sec or higher in middle cerebral or internal carotid arteries (normal = 140-170 cm/sec for sickle cell children) had a stroke risk of 10-15% per year, which represents a 20-fold increase over that for unselected children with sickle cell disease.
Data from the STOP study showed that ~10% of patients with Hb SS between the ages of 2-16 years are at risk for stroke as determined by Transcranial Doppler (TCD) velocities of 200 cm/sec or greater [ 11 ] . TCD velocity elevation can be due to two factors: reduction of arterial diameter due to stenosis and/or increased volume flow through the artery.

The vasodilator effect of acetazolamide on the cerebral vasculature has been characterized by both PET and transcranial Doppler (TCD) studies [ 21 22 ] . At a dose of 15 mg/kg the effect of acetazolamide is thought to be supramaximal with maximal cerebral vasodilation induced within about 20 minutes.
