Recommendations for Quantification of Doppler Echocardiography
Doppler echocardiography is a noninvasive technique that provides unique hemodynamic information otherwise not available without invasive monitoring.The accuracy of the results depends,however, on meticulous technique and an understanding of Doppler principles and flow dynamics. This document provides recommendations based on the scientific literature and a consensus from a body of experts to guide the recording and measurement of Doppler data.
