Fig. 2 B-mode ultrasound image of normal carotid bifurcation, showing common carotid artery (right) at its bifurcation into internal and external carotid arteries (left). Jugular vein lies above bifurcation.

Fig. 3 Color flow Doppler image of Figure 2. This view of carotid bifurcation is possible in only a few cases. Mayo Clinic Proceedings 1992 67, 1186-1196DOI: (10.1016/S0025-6196(12)61150-1) Copyright © 1992 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research Terms and Conditions
Fig. 4 Normal Doppler velocity waveforms from common carotid (A), internal carotid (B), and external carotid (C) arteries. Mayo Clinic Proceedings 1992 67, 1186-1196DOI: (10.1016/S0025-6196(12)61150-1) Copyright © 1992 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research Terms and Conditions
Fig. 5 Velocity waveform display (A) at a left internal carotid artery (LT ICA) with more than 80% stenosis. Note high velocity (450 cm/s) and spectral broadening. Color flow Doppler image (B) with color changes indicating high velocity at stenosis.

Fig. 7 Venous duplex ultrasonography, showing deep venous thrombosis in longitudinal (A) and transverse (B) views with venous flow (blue) around clot. Light pressure with probe (arrows) failed to compress thrombosed vein (C). A = artery; V C COMP = vein with compression.
