What is Power Doppler?
Power Doppler is a highly sensitive medical test that detects blood flow through artery. During the ultrasound doppler, the specific body area is covered with a special doppler gel and a tool called the converter is placed through the area. Sound waves are sent to the body and are diverted from organs and blood cells and are then picked up by a microphone and sent to a computer for analysis. Doctors can then detect blockages in the arteries in the abdomen, chest, head and neck, as well as in the arms and legs. The test is also used to control the health of the development of fruits. It is up to five times more sensitive than the ultrasound of the color of the color ultrasound and can provide a picture of blood flow in the organs. Images can also be reinforced to a higher degree because there is a less interfering noise that can distort the image after processing it. This characteristic in sensitivity to the flow that makes the doppler so beneficial. Although this is not sensitive to image disorders due to signal amplification, the movement of soft tissues in the body can cause interference. ExOther systems that detect these movements and can cancel them from the results of the Doppler display.
blockages in arteries and veins, such as plaque and clots, can be detected by doppler. The Doppler test is also useful in showing how well blood flows back into the heart and brain. He is also able to show whether blood flows normally in transplanted organs. High or turbulent sound occurs when abnormality, such as blocking, and something that disrupts blood flow can be considered as color -facing on the computer screen.
Despite its ability to detect the main problems, Power Doppler is not an unpleasant procedure. Cold from the gel is the only feeling of feeling if blood pressure cuffs are not used, which can create a sense of pressure. The procedure is completely safe and does not lead to any risk of damage to organs or damage to fruits and results are achieved relatively quickly to detect conditionsthat could be significant.
