title: [Color-coded cardiac Doppler].
abstract: Color flow mapping with Doppler technique was reviewed. We describe the advantages and technical was reviewed. We describe the advantages and technical limitations of the technique. The usefulness of color flow mapping in acquired and congenital disease was studied. We conclude that new information was added, concerning complex intracardiac flow, in order to the traditional study with classic continuous and pulsed Doppler examination.
