  • Title: [Combined use of duplex sonography and CW Doppler in diseases of the carotid arteries].
    Author: Zwicker C, Huben H, Langer M, Fiegler W.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1987 Oct; 40(10):311-4. PubMed ID: 2961043.
    Abstract:
    740 patients with findings of cerebrovascular insufficiency were investigated by duplex sonography and frequency-analysing cw doppler. In 620 pathological arteries not stenosing lesions of the carotid bifurcation were found most frequently (93%). In 35% moderate-severe stenoses of the a. carotis interna were diagnosed. The advantage of duplex sonography and cw doppler in combination is the addition of both methods, so that a very reliable diagnosis of the extracranial carotis is possible.
