Visualization of unstable regions in high PRF Doppler using Baker diagrams.
This paper attempts to develop a better understanding of the high pulse repetition frequency (HPRF)mode used in ultrasound systems with pulsed wave Doppler capability. It provides both intuition and mathematical analysis to help answer the fundamental question of whether the HPRF mode is feasible at any given depth using a visualization tool called Baker diagrams. The tool provides a better understanding of many of the limitations associated with the HPRF Doppler mode.
