Key result
Speckle pattern tracking provides a novel, angle-independent ultrasonic technique for blood velocity imaging with promising initial in vivo results.
A novel angle-independent ultrasonic technique using speckle tracking shows promising initial results for blood velocity imaging.
Should not yet change practice; leaves open translation of speckle tracking to human cardiovascular imaging.
We present a new technique for blood velocity imaging based on tracking the motion of the speckle pattern produced by blood. Unlike Doppler velocity determinations, these are angle independent. Initial in vivo experiments yield promising results.
