2 3-D Echo 2

3 Doppler measures blood flow velocities in the heart and the great vessels, based on the Doppler effect 3

4 Doppler Effects 4

5 5

6 Basic ECHO Doppler Shift Target stationary T f t f t = f r R f r Target moving toward transducer T R f r f t f r > f t Target moving away from transducer T R f t f r f r < f t Doppler shift or frequency (f d ) = f r -f t 6

7 Doppler Shift If = 0, cos = m/sec 7

8 A Comparison of Two-Dimensional Echo and Doppler 2D-Echo Doppler Ultrasound target Tissue Blood Goal of diagnosis Anatomy Physiology Type of information Structural Functional Optimal alignment between beam and target Perpendicular Parallel Preferred transducer frequency High Low 8

9 Why velocity? 9

10 Bernoulli Equation Daniel Bernoulli 8 February March 1782 Swiss mathematician and physicist 10

11 Why do we want to know the velocity? V1 V2 Simplified Bernoulli Equation Pressure gradient = 4 (V V 12 ) Estimation Pressure gradient = 4V 2 11

12 Doppler shift = 2 f t v cos θ c Adapted from ECHOSAP 12

13 Rule of 20 degree 13

14 Doppler Pulsed-wave (PW) Doppler Continuous wave (CW) Doppler Color-flow (CF) Doppler 14

15 Pulsed- vs Continuous-wave Doppler Pulsed-wave Continuous-wave Measures specific blood flow Measures flow along the axis Maximum measurable vel < 2 m/s Maximum measurable vel 9 m/s Performed by Duplex transducer Performed by Duplex and nonimaging transducer Low vel at specific site Peak vel across orifice Clinical applications Clinical applications LVOT velocity and TVI Peak velocity and TVI Volume measurement Valvular pressure gradient Diastolic filling parameters Pressure half-time Mitral inflow velocity Pulmonary pressure Oh JK.

40 Pulsed Sample Depth & Size Deeper positioning of the sample volume > an automatic decrease in the Nyquist limit. Most users of pulsed Doppler will leave this gate in a midposition for routine scanning decrease or increase the size of the gate depending on the clinical situation 40

41 Color Flow Doppler 41

42 Color Doppler Imaging Utilizes multigated Pulse wave Doppler to estimate mean blood flow velocity Direction of blood flow is displayed using the traditional `BART colour scheme where flow away from the probe appears blue (BA) and flow towards the probe appears red (RT). There are 2 colour maps commonly encountered on echo machines: 42

43 Color Flow Doppler 43

44 Color Flow Imaging Turbulence Red to Yellow fast Red Yellow Magenta Blue Blue Green Flow direction Forward Reverse slow slow fast Flow velocity Turbulence Blue to Cyan Omnoto & Kasai Echocardiography

45 Color Doppler Velocity Map - 45

46 Color Doppler Variance Mode Laminar flow is blue or red; turbulent flow is yellow or green 46

49 Color Flow Doppler Color Aliasing

50 Color Flow Doppler Mitral Regurgitation

51 Mitral regurgitation Direction of Color Flow Jet Eccentric Central 51

52 Colour Doppler Images Ensure colour box covers the entire area of interest, Set the Nyquist limit scale appropriate to the structure of interest. Valvular and arterial structures is cm/sec. Slower velocity venous structures and the assessment of the interatrial septum is cm/sec 52

54 Hemodynamics assessment Mean RAP (CVP) Pulmonary artery (PA) pressure PA systolic pressure PA diastolic pressure Left atrial pressure (LAP) Left ventricular enddiastolic pressure (LVEDP) Stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO) Quantitation of Valve regurgitation Shunt volume Ventricular function Systolic Diastolic 54

56 Time - velocity Integral (TVI) 56

57 Pulmonary Artery Pressure TR peak velocity = RV systolic pressure - RA pressure RV systolic pressure =TR peak velocity + RA pressure 57

58 Pulmonary Artery Pressure TR peak velocity = RV systolic pressure - RA pressure RV systolic pressure =TR peak velocity + RA pressure PA systolic pressure 58

59 Pulmonary Artery Pressure TR peak velocity = RV systolic pressure - RA pressure RV systolic pressure =TR peak velocity + RA pressure IVC inspiratory collapse >50% RA pressure = 10 mmhg <50% RA pressure = mmhg 59

60 RA Pressure Approximation by 2-D Examination of the IVC 60

61 RV Systolic Pressure RVSP = 55 mmhg + 5 mmhg 61 Cardiol Clin 1990;8:277-87
