Clinical Trial Summary

The new technical of ultrasonic exploration of this project purpose to validate the measurement of cerebral pulsatility by a new way called "Fast Cerebral Pulsatility Imaging" (FCPI).This will somehow determine the natural history of cerebral pulsatility during development adult to old age


Clinical Trial Description

Main objective

Phase 1:

-Study the in-vivo development of ultrasonic method in terms of quality of the acquisitions and intra-operator reproducibility.

Study the ease of positioning in relation to MRI and fusion of MRI and FCPI data via the neuro-navigation system

Phase 2:

-Study the variability of cerebral pulsatility of measured by "Fast Cerebral Pulsatility Imaging" or FCPI with age.

Secondary objectives

- Compare the results of displacements cartography's and vascular cartography obtained by MRI (especially by Arteriel Spin Labelling = ASL)

- Compare results of FCPI with results of cognitive tests of aging separating fluid functions (prefrontal) and functions called crystallized; and study the residual effect of age on cognitive tasks and speed of cognitive processing after taking into account the effect of the cerebral pulsatility

- Compare results of FCPI with electrophysiological measures (PE EEG) describing the attentional control

- Perform an exploratory analysis to highlight the propagating part of the brain displacement maps ;
