A Doppler ultrasound can help check whether an issue such as a blockage is impeding blood flow. Doctors use the scans to diagnose a range of issues. Here, learn about the procedure, results, and more.

A Doppler ultrasound is a quick, painless way to check for problems with blood flow such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Find out what it is, when you need one, and how it’s done.

Doppler velocimetry uses ultrasound to check blood flow in the umbilical cord or between the uterus and the placenta. If the blood supply is restricted, your baby can't get enough nutrients and ...

Current evidence suggests that using Doppler ultrasound in high-risk pregnancies to monitor a fetus' health may reduce caesarean sections and the number of babies who die, according to a new review.

Each participant underwent bilateral ABI measurement using the plethysmographic device (Dopplex Ability (DA100PB), Huntleigh Healthcare, Cardiff, UK) and Doppler ultrasound (Doppler MD2, 8 MHz ...

Audio-guided Doppler ultrasound generates an audible sound from flowing venous blood, which helps the operator localise the vein and differentiate it from its companion artery. The portable ultrasound ...

A Doppler ultrasound that measures the blood flow of small unborn babies can reveal whether or not the placenta is working properly. In case of repeated deviations from these Doppler measurements ...

Of course, ultrasound has long been used to track fetal growth. However, the new research used "Doppler ultrasound" to look more closely at the resistance of blood vessels within the umbilical cord.
