Pulsed Doppler echocardiography (PDE) is a technique for evaluating blood
flow characteristics at specific locations within the heart and great
vessels. Because this method assesses blood flow rather than cardiac
structures, PDE complements the findings of M-mode echocardiography. A new
on-line graphical method for displaying pulsed Doppler information provides
1) a printed, permanent record of flow information, 2) precise timing of
blood flow events, and 3) information on the direction of flow in the heart
and great vessels.
