Abstract :
Low cost and ease-of-use is important in today´s medical environment. Blood velocity measurement has required expensive resources - duplex-Doppler imaging systems with skilled operators. Digital signal processing, now an inexpensive resource, allows easy to use and low in cost vector Doppler systems to measure blood velocity
