Vascular Ultrasound Exam 1ACTUAL
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
Detect the presence/absence of blood flood, direction of flow, disturbance of flow, tissue
characterization, doppler waveform analysis - Correct answers✔✔What is the blood flow
analysis?
To know the course of blood and analyze the spectrum/color map - Correct answers✔✔What is
the purpose of knowing the direction of flow?
Evaluate for increased velocity
Evaluate for obstruction of flow
To get a general idea of how blood is flowing - Correct answers✔✔What is the purpose of
knowing the disturbance of flow?
Perfusion patterns of some tissues
Perfusion patterns of states of tissue activity - Correct answers✔✔What is the promise for
characterizing the tissue?
Velocity
turbulance - Correct answers✔✔What is the spectral anaylisis?
Non Resistive Waveforms - Correct answers✔✔high diastolic component
Supply organs that need constant perfusion aka ICA, HA, RA
Resistive Waveforms - Correct answers✔✔little or reversed diastolic component, organs don't
need constant supply
