  • Abstract
    A new method of measuring the spatial velocity profile in blood vessels is presented. It is based on the detection of the phase difference between successive echoes arising from bursts of ultrasound. The echoes are preconditioned by a circuit that cancels the stationary components without affecting the range information.
