  • Title: Special Doppler ultrasound transducers for recording vertebral artery blood flow in rabbits.
    Author: Stürm RP, Estlinbaum W, Casty M.
    Journal: Ultrasound Med Biol; 1989; 15(5):499-503. PubMed ID: 2675448.
    Abstract:
    Two kinds of transducers and a surgical procedure by means of which the vertebral artery of rabbits can be insonated through the acoustic window between atlas and axis are presented. A range-gated pulsed Doppler ultrasonic device of 10 MHz is used. Rabbit vertebral Doppler waveforms are characterized by high end-diastolic flow and a modified Pourcelot Index of 0.3. They are identical to those recorded from human vertebral arteries.
