According to the classical theory of measuring flow by Doppler ultrasound, one can estimate only that component of the flow that is in the direction of the ultrasound beam. The PI has discovered that flow that is perpendicular to the ultrasound can also be measured by appropriate analysis of the spectrum of the reflected signal. This is a proposal to extend this novel finding to turbulent flow and to design transducers that allow determination of blood flow under either laminar or turbulent flow conditions. The proposed research has the potential of greatly improving our ability to measure blood flow noninvasively.

根据用多普勒超声测量流量的经典理论，人们只能估计在超声光束方向上的那部分流量。PI发现，通过对反射信号的频谱进行适当的分析，也可以测量出与超声波垂直的水流。这是一项将这一新发现扩展到湍流的建议，并设计允许在层流或湍流条件下测定血流的传感器。这项提议的研究有可能极大地提高我们无创测量血流的能力。
