New Insights from Inside-Out Doppler Tomography

New Insights from Inside-Out Doppler Tomography

We present preliminary results from our investigation into using an “inside-out” velocity space for creating a Doppler tomogram. The aim is to transpose the inverted appearance of the Cartesian velocity space used in normal Doppler tomography. In a comparison between normal and inside-out Doppler to...
