[Ultrasonic diagnosis of aneurysmal polydystrophies]

Two methods are available for establishing a positive diagnosis of aneurysmal polydystrophies: the use of hemodynamic data from Doppler recordings to obtain details of the degree of parietal elasticity and the effect of parietal lesions on circulatory rate, and the application of real time ultrasound imaging to visualize the structure of the wall, the contents of the lumen and the level and extent of variations in caliber.
