Blood Flow Measurement

Blood flow measurement assesses how much blood moves through vessels over time, providing insights into cardiovascular health. Techniques like Doppler ultrasound use sound waves to evaluate blood velocity, translating it into flow volume. Other methods include MRI and specialized sensors that detect blood movement and pressure. These measurements help identify blockages, constrictions, or abnormal flow patterns, guiding diagnosis and treatment. Accurate blood flow assessment is essential for understanding heart function and vascular health, enabling early detection of issues and monitoring the effectiveness of interventions.
