Doppler Ultrasound (Arteries vs Veins)

Let's explore Arteries vs Veins on Grayscale, Color and Spectral Doppler Ultrasound. Do you know how to distinguish between Arterial and Venous flow? We'll explore the Color Doppler map and how to tell the difference between an artery and a vein on a grayscale Ultrasound image and Color Doppler. Then we'll jump into spectral Doppler. Learn all about arteries and veins including arterial waveform basics. Arterial spectral Doppler patterns such as high and low resistance flow, and triphasic, biphasic and monophasic flow will be dissected. Discover the parts of a venous and an arterial waveform and how to tell if a waveform is pulsatile or phasic. Normal veins have 5 features on Ultrasound, and we'll look at each feature and what it looks like on the spectral Doppler waveform. Last but not least, we'll discuss pitfalls of identifying arteries vs veins on an Ultrasound.

Hi! I'm Michelle Macauley. Welcome to my channel- Sonography Minutes!
I've been a Sonographer for over 15 years and I also teach Ultrasound at the College level, where I've built a Breast Ultrasound course for both Mammographers and Sonographers.
My specialty is Breast Ultrasound, though I have experience in multiple types of Ultrasound.
I hold ARDMS certifications in Breast, Abdomen and OBGYN, and I'm also an RVT (Registered Vascular Technologist).
Join me as I cover all things Ultrasound!
