Infrasonic analysis of carotid vibration as a diagnostic method in carotid insufficiency syndrome.
The infrasonic part of the spectrum of the carotid artery wall vibration in the neck was obtained. Differences between the spectral content and vibrational amplitude in normal and occluded carotids were found. The application of this technique in clinical practice could be useful in the detection of the carotid insufficiency syndrome.
