Transcranial Doppler Assessment of Cerebral Flow Velocity During Cognitive Tasks Roger E. Kelley, MD; Jen Y. Chang, MS; Nancy J. Scheinman, PhD; Bonnie E. Levin, PhD; Robert C. Duncan, PhD; and Shih-Chang Lee, PhD Background and Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography to detect selective circulatory changes during cognitive activity. Methods: We measured cerebral artery flow velocity in 21 normal volunteers by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography during rest followed by cerebral activation. Mean and peak systolic

An ice storm is a type of winter storm characterized by freezing rain, also known as a glaze event or, in some parts of the United States, as a silver thaw. The U.S. National Weather Service defines an ice storm as a storm which results in the accumulation of at least 0.25-inch (6.4 mm) of ice on exposed surfaces. From 1982 to 1994, ice storms were more common than blizzards and averaged 16 per year.
