Abstract:
Bow Hunter's syndrome is a rare condition in which vertebrobasilar circulatory insufficiency develops because of neck rotation. We report a patient with Bow Hunter's syndrome diagnosed by Doppler sonography. This report demonstrates the important role of Doppler sonography in diagnosis of Bow Hunter's syndrome.

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...
