Spectral analysis of Doppler ultrasonic flow signals by a personal computer.
This paper describes a method of performing spectral analysis on Doppler acoustical signals from peripheral blood vessels with the use of an Apple II plus personal computer. Digitization is accomplished with a commercially available analog-to-digital converter. The data are transformed with a fast Fourier technique, and the resultant information is plotted by an inexpensive X-Y plotter and/or on a television receiver.
