    This study reveals that both distance and geometry significantly impact Doppler velocity measurements in stenotic arteries. Understanding these factors is crucial for accurate spectral analysis in cardiovascular diagnostics.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular fluid dynamics
    • Medical imaging and diagnostics
    • Biomedical engineering

    Background:

    • Non-axisymmetric stenoses present complex flow dynamics.
    • Accurate assessment of arterial stenosis is critical for patient management.
    • Doppler velocimetry is a key tool for evaluating blood flow characteristics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the velocity profile distal to a variable nonaxisymmetric stenosis.
    • To determine the influence of stenosis geometry and measurement location on Doppler-derived parameters.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized an in vitro pulsatile flow model.
    • Employed a continuous-wave Doppler velocimeter to measure peak systolic frequency.
    • Analyzed data in planes parallel and perpendicular to the stenosis long axis at varying distances.

    Main Results:

    • An exponential regression accurately described the relationship between peak systolic frequency and cross-sectional area reduction.
    • Measurement divergence increased with greater area reduction and proximity to the stenosis.
    • Perpendicular planes showed greater divergence in regressions compared to parallel planes.

    Conclusions:

    • Stenosis geometry and measurement distance are significant variables affecting spectral analysis results.
    • These findings highlight the importance of considering spatial factors in Doppler-based stenosis evaluation.
    • Further research may refine Doppler techniques for improved accuracy in complex stenosis assessment.
