Doppler ultrasonography is routinely used to identify abnormal blood flow. Nevertheless, conventional Doppler can be used to determine only the axial component of blood flow velocity and is angle dependent. A new method of multidimensional angle-independent estimation of flow velocity, called Vector Flow Imaging (VFI), has been proposed. It quantitatively evaluates the true velocity vector's amplitude and direction at any location into a vessel and displays a more intuitive depiction of the flow movements. High frame rate VFI, based on plane wave imaging, allows a detailed dynamic visualization of complex flow by showing even transient events, otherwise undetectable. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

多普勒超声检查通常用于识别异常血流。然而,传统多普勒仅可用于确定血流速度的轴向分量,且依赖于角度。一种新的血流速度多维角度无关估计方法,称为矢量血流成像(VFI),已被提出。它能定量评估血管内任何位置处真实速度矢量的幅度和方向,并更直观地显示血流运动。基于平面波成像的高帧率VFI,通过显示即使是短暂事件(否则无法检测到),实现对复杂血流的详细动态可视化。© 2017威利期刊公司。《临床超声杂志》45:582 - 588,2017年。
