background: behçet’s disease (bd) is a multisystemic inflammatory vasculitis of unknown etiology, and vasculitis being its major pathological feature. objectives: we studied the prevalence of microembolic signals (mes) in patients with diagnosis behçet's disease. we also tried to determine the frequency of mes in bd patients with or without neurological involvement. materials and methods: ...

doppler ultrasound can provide important information about vascular problems through the analysis of blood flow wave-form. the purpose of this study was obtaining the normal images of color doppler and estimation of blood flow velocity parameters of femoral artery in rabbits. left and right femoral arteries of 8 healthy adult new zealand rabbits were evaluated. color and spectral doppler images...

conclusions both ua and mca doppler tests were associated with some neonatal outcomes. however, sensitivity of both ua and mca assessments was low in the prediction of adverse neonatal outcomes. by the comparison of these two methods, we found that ua doppler assessment is a better predictor of neonatal outcomes. results based on the findings, poor outcomes were detected in 48 women. nearly 17....

wireless communication is the major form of connection nowadays. in most cases it exploits the benefits of the spread spectrum techniques to overcome channel introduced corruptions like doppler residual frequency, noise, interference and jamming. these techniques also enhance the security and quality of the link. using long spreading pseudo-noise codes provides further security for the link tho...

Background: Prediction of adverse perinatal and postnatal outcomes could be possible by using ultrasound Doppler evaluation, however there are some controversies regarding this issue in the literature. The goal of present study was to evaluate predictive value of Doppler indices in single and twin pregnancies during second trimester. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted i...

Background: Diagnostic ultrasound has been used to detect human disease especially fetus abnormalities in recent decades. Although the harmful effects of diagnostic ultrasound on human have not been established so far, several researchers showed it has had bioeffects in cell lines and in experimental animals. Three-dimensional (3D), four-dimensional (4D), and color Doppler sonography are new te...

results the mean age was 45.6 ± 13.1 (24 to 74 ) years. twenty-two were normal responders [considered as non-organic causes (37.3% of all patients)], 27 were classified as venous leakage, eight had arterial insufficiency and two were mixed type. maximum psv occurred before the fifth minute in 47 patients (92.2%). eight patients completed all phases of erection in the first 5 minutes. we defined...

three-dimensional color doppler ultrasonography is a new technique to evaluate the pattern of blood vessels. this study was performed to assess the feasibility of this method in evaluation of kidney vasculature pattern in dogs. in this paper, visualization of the renal, interlobar, arcuate, and interlobular arteries and veins using 3d color doppler ultrasonography in dogs is shown and the techn...

Abstract Background: Epidemiologic studies have shown the relationship of maternal hemoglobin level and abnormal findings in uterine Doppler sonography with pregnancy- related complications. In this study, we evaluated the relationship of uterine artery Doppler velocimetry findings and hemoglobin level with the outcomes of pregnancy in women with preeclampsi...
