We have developed a broad-band radar which is the precipitation Ku-band doppler radar using the pulse compression technique (bandwidth=80MHz), and observed the rainfall. We could successfully obtain the vertical profile of the equivalent reflectivity factor Ze and doppler velocity with the high range-resolution from low altitude.

Potential Use of Pulse Oximetry for the Diagnosis of Testicular Torsion Scrotal Doppler ultrasonography (scrotal US) has been commonly used for evaluating patients with suspected testicular torsion (TT).1,2However, scrotalUS isnot available in allmedical facilities. Comparatively, pulse oximetry is easily available at all institutions; it is used for monitoring pulse oximeter saturation (SpO2) ...

ferential pericardial effusion with features consistent with tamponade. Color Doppler-flow examination revealed flow within the anterior portion of the pericardial effusion directed toward the right ventricle in systole and toward the right atrium in diastole. No communication with the right atrium or right ventricle was seen [1]. The intrapericardial flow pattern could also be demonstrated by ...

With the growth of genetic engineering, mice have become increasingly common as models of human diseases, and this has stimulated the development of techniques to assess the murine cardiovascular system. Our group has developed nonimaging and dedicated Doppler techniques for measuring blood velocity in the large and small peripheral arteries of anesthetized mice. We translated technology origin...

I investigated the scaling of echolocation call parameters (frequency, duration and repetition rate) in bats in a functional context. Low-duty-cycle bats operate with search phase cycles of usually less than 20 %. They process echoes in the time domain and are therefore intolerant of pulse-echo overlap. High-duty-cycle (>30 %) species use Doppler shift compensation, and they separate pulse and ...

Synthetic impulse and aperture radar (SIAR) is a multi-input multi-output orthogonal multicarrier frequency radar, kind of diverse array (FDA). This has omnidirectional emission in the transmitter each receiver or receiving can form beam. The 4D matched filter this radar’s circular arrays reveal range, elevation angle, azimuth Doppler. existence high sidelobe range-Doppler one significant chall...

The usefulness of two-dimensional color-Doppler flow-imaging (2D Doppler) in the detection, localization, and quantitation of bioprosthetic mitral valve regurgitation is uncertain. Mitral bioprostheses, before and after the creation of transvalvular (n = 33), paravalvular (n = 17), or combined (n = 23) defects, were mounted in a pulsed duplication system (flow rates, 2.5-6.5 1/min; pulse rate, ...

An airborne pulse Doppler radar depends on a combination of range selectivity and velocity selectivity to detect targets in ground cluttsr. In principle clutter sensitivity can be reduced by employing higher bandwidths for greater range resolution. However at a sufficiently high bandwidth the phenomenon of range bin migration occurs which precludes the use of conventional Doppler processing. He...

PURPOSE The effectiveness of real-time feedback using an audible pulse in renal Doppler ultrasonography was evaluated. METHODS This study was approved by the institutional review board of our hospital. Written informed consent was provided by all volunteers at enrollment. The 26 healthy volunteers enrolled in this study underwent Doppler ultrasound of both kidneys using audible and inaudible ...
