background: conventional doppler measurements, including mitral inflow and pulmonary venous flow, are used to estimate left ventricular end diastolic pressure (lvedp). however, these parameters have limitations in predicting lvedp among patients with mitral regurgitation. this study sought to establish whether the correlation between measurements derived from tissue doppler echocardiography and...

We evaluated the effectiveness of color and spectral Doppler examination of the ovarian vasculature flow, using transvaginal sonography (TVS) in 65 women prior to laparoscopy due to suspected ovarian torsion. There were 15 cases of ovarian torsion. In all of them, a pathology was detected by the color and spectral Doppler examination. Of the 50 patients without torsion at laparoscopy, one had a...

AIM To study the role of Doppler imaging in prediction of high-risk pregnancies and their outcomes. METHODS AND MATERIAL This prospective study in a setup of tertiary-level care center includes 500 high-risk pregnant women from rural and urban sectors and evaluates the predictive values of various Doppler indices. RESULTS Out of 500 patients, 110 patients had abnormal Doppler among them, 70...

OBJECTIVE To detect the serum levels of folate and B12 in both preclamptic and normotensive pregnant women and to determine whether there is any relation between these levels with the uterine and umbilical artery Doppler indices as well as the pregnancy outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS This case controlled study comprised 79 pregnant patients with preeclampsia and 113 healthy, normotensive pregn...

BACKGROUND Conventional Doppler indices of left ventricular diastolic function do not correlate with symptoms or exercise capacity in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, because of their dependence on loading conditions. Diastolic mitral annular velocity measured using Doppler tissue imaging has been reported to be a preload independent index of left ventricular diastolic function. OBJ...

Sub-Doppler excitation spectroscopy in a collimated cold supersonic beam of 5% NO seeded in argon has been performed with a spectral resolution down to 10 MHz for four vibronic bands within the perturbed B ?X A system of NO . The rotational temperature of about 15 K achieved by adiabatic cooling allows the separation of closely lying vibronic bands which overlap in absorption spectra ...

In this contribution, the Doppler spectral properties are simulated and analyzed based on 3GPP Spatial Channel Model extension (SCME). SCME standard channel model is applied to the system evaluation and optimization in LTE and other future communication networks. Since future mobile communication systems demand for high moving speed, the simulation and analysis of Doppler characteristics become...

turkmen horse is one of the oldest and purest breeds in the world, but there is no information on doppler echocardiographic parameters in this horse. in the present study, pulsed-wave (pw) doppler echocardiography was performed on 42 clinically normal 3- to 15-year-old racing turkmen horses. no cardiac disease was detected with two-dimensional (2-d) real-time, m-mode, and colour flow mapping. d...
