β¦ Synopsis
Carotid Doppler examination was compared with arteriographic findings in 125 patients. The results demonstrated exact correlation in 87% of vessels studied. Clinically significant errors occurred at a rate of 4.5%. Clinically insignificant errors (8.5%) were usually the result of wall disease being mistaken for nonhemodynamically significant stenosis.

The efficacy of different ultrasound methods for the detection of extracranial arterial disease (EAD) was evaluated on the basis of the comparison with angiography. High-resolution B-scan imaging combined with a multigated pulsed Doppler flow pattern analysis (Duplex system) achieved the best result
