Item no.: P5950100
Principle
This set-up shows how blood flow studies are performed using Doppler ultrasound (Doppler sonograph). On a realistic arm dummy, the differences between continuous (venous) and pulsating (arterial) flow are shown as well as the difference in flow through a normal blood vessel and a stenosis.
Tasks
- Analyse blood flow and search positive and negative flow components. Explain the differences.
- Locate the built-in stenosis and compare the spectral distribution upstream and downstream of the stenosis.
- Examine and compare the three pulse modes of the pump.
