Abstract

Description

We study the middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity (MCAfv) in humans using transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD). The time series of the axial flow velocity averaged over a cardiac beat interval is found to exhibit clear multifractal properties for healthy subjects. We observe a loss of multifractality for subjects with migraine.
