Flow-augmentation device for peripheral vascular Doppler US.
نویسنده
چکیده
To augment venous blood flow at Doppler ultrasonography (US) of the extremities, a device comprising a blood pressure cuff connected to an external reservoir was tested. Constant and easily controlled pressure was delivered with each compression by the same operator performing US. In 10 patients (four men and six women, aged 54-86 years), discomfort was reduced compared with discomfort during manual compression, which requires two operators.

متن کاملI-46: Obstetrical Doppler
Accurate assessment of gestational age, fetal growth, and the detection of fetal and placental abnormalities are major benefits of sonography. Color Doppler can be used to assist in the identification of vascular architecture, detection of vascular pathology and visualization of blood flow changes associated with physiologic processes and disease states. The clinical applications of obstetrical...

The aim of this study was to define the preoperative diagnosis of thyroid follicular carcinoma by the vascular pattern and velocimetric parameters using high resolution pulsed and power Doppler ultrasonography (US). We compared the vascular pattern and the velocimetric parameters, such as peak systolic velocity (Vmax), end-diastolic velocity (Vmin), pulsatility index (PI), or resistance index (...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate if three-dimensional power Doppler (3DPD) ultrasound (US) can detect bacterial cystitis in dogs better than two-dimensional (2D) US. Animals: Six mixed breed dogs Procedures: Ten ml of 0.1% alcoholic solution of salicylic acid was entered into the urinary bladder of six male mixed-breed dogs by catheter. Twenty four hours later, culture sol...
