Angle independent Doppler color imaging: determination of accuracy and a method of display
1Biomedical Engineering Program, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond 23298.
Abstract:
A multiple beam technique was utilized to obtain angle independent Doppler color images (AIDCI) using an ultrasonic scanner with a linear transducer. A quantitative study using steady flow models has been performed to evaluate the accuracy of this method in velocity measurements. The results show that the velocity amplitudes measured with this method correlated with those calculated from the measured flow rates (r = 0.95-0.98). The flow angles obtained with this method also correlated with those calculated from the coordinates of the tube image (r = 0.93-0.96). To improve the interpretation of the angle independent results, a method for visualizing two-dimensional flow fields is presented and compared with two existing methods.

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...
