Abstract
The authors show that when mechanical scanning used in color flow mapping is controlled using a stepper motor, the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio is improved because the uncancelled signal due to the transducer scanning effect is reduced. As a result, color flow mapping may be extended to the imaging of small vessels and under weakly scattering, low-flow-rate conditions. Experimental results obtained using a Doppler phantom with a neoprene simulated vessel of 0.6-cm internal diameter are presented.< >
