Abstract
Extracranial arterial disease was assessed using non-invasive continuous wave Doppler ultrasound. The results of the Doppler study were compared with those of angiography. There was a positive correlation between the results of angiography and the shape of the Doppler waveform, but the correlation was improved by adding a compression manceuvre to the procedure.Keywords
