Antegrade blood flow is the naturally direction of the flowing blood.
•
Blood volume per time measured in: cm3/s. The sonographic detection of blood flow in vascular ultrasound is limited by factors such as tissue motion (clutter), attenuation properties of the intervening tissue, and slow or low-volume flow. Different flow types in human body:
•
Behaves like stationary tissue = stagnant flow.
•
Flow with consistent velocities across a vessel = laminar flow.
•
Laminar flow passes through a stricture or stenosis (in the center fast flow, near the walls the flow spirals) = vortex flow.
•
Flow at different velocities that fluctuates = turbulent flow.
