Are systolic velocity duplex metrics negatively affected by flow aliasing in areas of critical internal carotid artery stenosis

Are systolic velocity duplex metrics negatively affected by flow aliasing in areas of critical internal carotid artery stenosis

Purpose: Duplex scanning is a useful noninvasive screening tool for the detection of carotid bifurcation disease. Internal carotid artery (ICA) peak systolic velocity (PSV) and ICA/common carotid artery (CCA) PSV ratios are proven metrics determining 70%-99% ICA stenosis. A potential disadvantage of...
