How Does an Ultrasound Doppler Work?
Ultrasound Dopplers measure blood flow by bouncing high-frequency ultrasound off of red blood cells. The Doppler Effect allows the device to produce an audio simulation of pulse rate, and to carry out other diagnostics. This is a non-invasive solution to performing these diagnostic tests.
