title: [The doppler effect applied to the study of the vertebral arteries (author's transl)].
abstract: Results and correlation with arteriographic findings in 25 cases. The methodological criteria essential to the reliability of this examination are described, as well as the special conditions of recording which may influence interpretation. The respective values for systolic and diastolic circulatory rates obtained on ultrasound curves led the authors to classify the results into five groups. There was satisfactory correlation between the latter and the anatomical data provided by arteriography of the vertebral arteries. Such a quantitative approach provides an assessment of the functionally normal or pathological state of the vertebral arteries and of circulatory assymetry.
