Cancellation of Doppler intrinsic spectral broadening using ultrafast Doppler imaging

Although conventional pulse-wave Doppler has proved to be a valuable diagnostic method for many vascular pathologies, it is hampered by issues related to repeatability as well as problems associated with quantification and system-dependent variability. These limitations are due to intrinsic spectral broadening on the Doppler spectrum, resulting from the directivity pattern of the ultrasound focuse...
