Background and Purpose An understanding of carotid atherosclerosis is important to further
our knowledge regarding the etiology of cerebral ischemia, and therefore it is necessary to …

Background and Purpose Power Doppler imaging (PDI) is a new ultrasound technique that,
in contrast to color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI), generates intravascular color signals from …

Background and Purpose Power Doppler imaging (PDI) is a new sonographic technique
that has recently been introduced for vascular application. Since the technical principles of …

Carotid artery disease was assessed in 180 patients by means of color Doppler flow
imaging. Color Doppler findings in 360 carotid arteries were compared with the results of …

Carotid Doppler is an accurate, safe and repeatable method of assessing arterial calibre, for
distinguishing harmless neck bruits and to identify the stroke prone individual. It is …

The results of two methods for noninvasively diagnosing carotid disease are described. In
the first study, a color‐coded continuous‐wave Doppler scanner was used. As evaluated by …

Background and Purpose There is a clinical imperative for noninvasive tests for carotid
disease that have high sensitivity. Previous studies have shown that transcranial Doppler …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Color Doppler sonography (CDS) suffers from such
disadvantages as high interobserver variability and problems with data presentation and …

PURPOSE: To examine the variability of Doppler measurements along the extracranial
courses of the nondiseased common carotid artery (CCA) and internal carotid artery (ICA) …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Duplex sonography is an effective tool for evaluating
internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, and power Doppler imaging has improved its value in …
