The paper details a non-invasive continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound method for 2D imaging of the carotid bifurcation and simultaneous spectral analysis of blood velocities.

Cite This Study

Lewis et al. (1978) studied Carotid bifurcation imaging. Continuous-wave Doppler-shift ultrasound with spectral analysis vs. Arteriograms was evaluated on Visualization of the carotid bifurcation. Continuous-wave Doppler-shift ultrasound combined with spectral analysis provides a non-invasive method for visualizing the carotid bifurcation, with images compared to arteriograms.
