Doppler Flashcards
change in frequency of a sound wave due to motion between source of sound and its receiver
doppler effect
difference between the transmitted and received frequencies
doppler shift
received > transmitted
positive
transmitted > received
negative
relationship between blood cell velocity and Doppler shift
direct
Doppler shift equation
reflected f - transmitted f
Doppler shift is within audible range of
20-20kHz
the process of extracting the doppler shift
demodulation
blood moving toward transducer elicits a
positive doppler shift
blood moving away from the transducer elicits a
negative doppler shift
true velocity x cosine of beam angle = ?
measured velocity
what does true velocity depend on
cosine of beam angle and direction of flow
distance RBC travels divided by speed
speed
defines magnitude and direction of travel
velocity
what does the 2 stand for in the doppler equation
double Doppler shift (one is transmitted, one is received)
relationship between Doppler shift and transducer frequency
direct
relationship between Doppler shift and speed
inverse
is there a Doppler shift when RBC aren’t moving?
no
a doppler that senses Doppler shift but does not provide any information about direction
nondirectional doppler
what does non-coherent mean
can’t tell if sound beam is coming toward or away from us
bidirectional doppler can distinguish between ___
positive and negative doppler shifts
technique used to process bidirectional doppler
phased quadrature
what do you called phased quadrature that detects alias
quadrature detection
of crystals in CW doppler
2
duty factor in CW
1 or 100%
is CW an imaging trx?
no
advantage of CW doppler
sensitive to high velocities
disadvantages of CW doppler
range ambiguity /
deep reflectors have a low amplitude and may falsely represent fewer reflectors
duplex imaging
2D and doppler
dedicated CW / PEDOF
2 semicircular crystals with no backing material undampened signal narrow bandwidth high Q factor high sensitivity
Doppler shift is the ___ of two frequencies
difference
if the frequency of a sound wave changes when there is motion between the sound source and receiver, what other parameters change
wavelength and period
