An analytic study of the different techniques for non-invasive vascular exploration, used to examine cervical arteries, distinguished between hemodynamic tests (continuous and pulsed Doppler, spectral analysis of frequencies, oculoplethysmography) and imaging methods (ultrasound and real time echotomographic imaging). Best performances at the present time are obtained by combined frequency spectral analysis + real time echotomography or Doppler + real time echotomography. Selection of appropriate techniques is based on clinical findings of a symptomatic or asymptomatic patient. The decision as to the need for angiography and therapy can be made either immediately after the examination by Doppler alone or after a complete investigation, depending upon the circumstances.
一项关于用于检查颈动脉的非侵入性血管探测不同技术的分析研究，区分了血流动力学测试（连续和脉冲多普勒、频率频谱分析、眼体积描记法）和成像方法（超声和实时超声断层成像）。目前最佳的性能是通过频谱分析 + 实时超声断层成像或多普勒 + 实时超声断层成像的组合获得的。合适技术的选择基于有症状或无症状患者的临床发现。根据具体情况，关于是否需要血管造影和治疗的决定可以在仅通过多普勒检查后立即做出，也可以在全面检查后做出。
