Abstract

Increasing life expectancy and aging of the population is accompanied by a steady increase in the number of elderly patients with chronic cerebral ischemia and age-related cognitive impairment associated with cerebral hypoperfusion and microangiopathy. The aim of this study was to identify long-term changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) in patients with chronic cerebral ischemia at the epidural electrical stimulation of the spinal cord (SCS).
