Technical advances in the field of ultrasound have resulted in the development of a high resolution real-time B-mode imaging system that permits direct Doppler analysis of hemodynamic abnormalities. This system combines both anatomic information and physiological information which permits detailed analysis of the entire spectrum of disease occurring at the carotid bifurcation. Future developments will permit improved management of patients at risk for stroke from carotid vascular disease.
