Abstract
A non-invasive method and system to determine the mental performance capacity of a human subject to perform a given task, said method with high temporal resolution, user-friendly and portable, including steps of obtaining a subject's baseline cerebral blood flow velocity in cerebral arteries using a transcranial Doppler ultrasound instrument with sample volumes focused on cerebral vessels on both sides using two probes placed on the temples and calculating laterality index for both arteries. Simultaneously, testing the subject with tasks of mental performance presented on the screen of a digital computer and using a computer input peripheral device while simultaneously monitoring the mean blood flow velocity during each stage of the task in real-time. Processing the acquired data using a microprocessor and communicating the determined mental performance indices via a cellular telephone circuit to a remote computer or mission control.
