Dobutamine-induced stress significantly decreased CBF in the frontal lobe anterior circulation. Individuals with a high BMI and low SBP during the dobutamine stress test are more likely to have a stress-induced CBF decrease. Thus, attention should be paid to blood pressure, BMI, and cerebrovascular morphology of patients undergoing dobutamine stress echocardiography or those receiving intensive care or anesthesia.
