Abstract

A duplex ultrasonic system involves combining B-mode imaging and a pulsed Doppler in a single instrument. Since development of the first clinically useful system in the mid 1970’s [1], duplex scanning has rapidly become the most useful and widely applied method for the evalution of arterial and venous disease. It is now the most frequently used noninvasive diagnostic modality in the assessment of extracranial cerebral vascular disease [2].
