Popis: In 1969, Light demonstrated that descending aortic arch blood velocity could be recorded from the skin surface using Doppler ultrasound (1). The potential value of this technique has not been fully evaluated although its usefulness in the assessment of aortic insufficiency has been suggested (2) and it may have some value in the non-invasive estimation of cardiac output (3). We therefore set out to examine aortic blood velocity patterns in patients with a variety of valvular and myocardial lesions.
