The accuracy and the reliability of extracranial vertebral artery Doppler flow for the detection of the possible cause of the tinnitus was studied prospectively and Doppler findings were compared with controls. Vertebral artery measurements have been made in 28 patients (56 vertebral arteries) with tinnitus and 12 sex- and age-matched controls. Maximal flow velocity and mean flow velocity were measured and total vertebral artery flow was calculated by adding flows from the right and left sides. When compared with each other and controls, there was significant difference with respect to mean flow velocities of the right and left vertebral arteries in the patients with tinnitus (p < or = 0.05), and also total mean flow velocity between patients with tinnitus and controls (p < or = 0.05). It has been concluded that Doppler sonography gave useful information on the vertebral artery flow in patients with tinnitus.
前瞻性地研究了颅外椎动脉多普勒血流检测耳鸣可能病因的准确性和可靠性，并将多普勒检查结果与对照组进行了比较。对28例耳鸣患者（56条椎动脉）和12名年龄及性别匹配的对照者进行了椎动脉测量。测量了最大流速和平均流速，并通过将左右两侧的血流相加计算出椎动脉总血流量。耳鸣患者左右椎动脉的平均流速与对照组相比存在显著差异（p≤0.05），耳鸣患者与对照组之间的总平均流速也存在显著差异（p≤0.05）。得出结论，多普勒超声检查为耳鸣患者的椎动脉血流提供了有用信息。
