title: [Hemotachymetry by Doppler effect (author's transl)].
abstract: Transcutaneous hemotachymetry by ultrasonic Doppler effect is a simple, rapid, atraumatic and inexpensive method for obtaining hemodynamic data from cervical arteries; it is immensely useful for diagnosis of circulatory disorders. The author consider the physical principles of the method, its advantages and its drawbacks. Reproducibility and normal hemodynamic values are discussed.
