Competency information
Details
Manipulate an ultrasound probe to acquire Doppler spectra from images of arteries and veins in longitudinal and transverse cross-sections.
Considerations
- Fundamental scientific principles of spectral Doppler imaging and spectral analysis.
- Application of spectral Doppler ultrasound in the measurement of artery and vein haemodynamics.
