Course Description
In this course students are introduced to math equations and the relationship of variables to the physics of normal and abnormal blood flow patterns. Basic fluid properties of the venous and arterial systems are defined. The Doppler Effect and color Doppler imaging are also introduced in this course. The use of the Doppler equation is used to show how the Doppler spectrum is formed. Measurements of the Doppler waveform are covered and artifacts that may occur are explained
