Single-sample PW Doppler overestimates mitral flow; supports accounting for cross-sectional skew in validation studies.
Does time interpolation of colour Doppler ultrasound maps correct artificially produced skewness in early mitral flow velocity profiles in healthy men?
When calculating blood flow using pulsed wave Doppler ultrasound from a single sample volume, cross-sectional skew must be taken into account as maximum flow velocity significantly overestimates mean velocity.
Samstad et al. (1989) studied this question.
