Abdominal applications of Doppler ultrasonography are becoming increasingly important as familiarity with Doppler principles and instruments grows. The availability of sensitive duplex and DCI instruments specifically adapted for use in the abdomen and pelvis has stimulated interest in the use of Doppler techniques as a complement to conventional imaging. Although the simultaneous display of tissue and flow information has enhanced the ease of evaluation of vascular abnormalities and increased diagnostic confidence, the role of Doppler is only just beginning to be defined. Since blood flow is a fundamental factor in health and disease, it is hoped that the new information provided by Doppler evaluation of the abdomen will continue to advance the role of ultrasound as a primary diagnostic method as Doppler and color imaging technology mature.
随着对多普勒原理和仪器的熟悉程度不断提高，腹部多普勒超声检查的应用变得越来越重要。专门适用于腹部和骨盆的灵敏双功和DCI仪器的出现，激发了人们对将多普勒技术作为传统成像补充手段的兴趣。尽管组织和血流信息的同时显示提高了血管异常评估的便利性并增强了诊断信心，但多普勒的作用才刚刚开始被界定。由于血流是健康和疾病的一个基本因素，随着多普勒和彩色成像技术的成熟，希望腹部多普勒评估提供的新信息将继续提升超声作为主要诊断方法的作用。
