doppler echocardiography

What are the Types of Doppler Echocardiography?

There are several types of Doppler echocardiography, including:
1. Color Doppler: This form adds color to the standard ultrasound images to show the direction and speed of blood flow.
2. Spectral Doppler: This type provides a graphical representation of blood flow velocities over time.
3. Continuous Wave Doppler: Used for measuring high velocities of blood flow, particularly useful in detecting severe valve diseases.
4. Pulsed Wave Doppler: Measures blood flow velocities at specific locations within the heart, ideal for assessing localized issues.
