Abstract
The cardiovascular system operates through complex hemodynamic processes involving pulsatile blood flow, varying viscosity, and the branching architecture of vessels. Interactions between blood flow and the vascular wall, which are characterized by shear and normal stress, along with wall stiffness, are crucial for maintaining vascular health. Doppler ultrasonography is a highly valuable noninvasive tool for assessing these hemodynamic parameters, enabling the measurement of key indices such as blood flow velocity, flow patterns, wall shear stress, and wall stiffness. This paper emphasizes the clinical significance of these indices and methods of measuring them using Doppler ultrasonography while addressing potential challenges. Accurate interpretation of these measurements is vital for reliable cardiovascular diagnostics and effective clinical decision-making.

期刊介绍:
Ultrasonography, the official English-language journal of the Korean Society of Ultrasound in Medicine (KSUM), is an international peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to practice, research, technology, and education dealing with medical ultrasound. It is renamed from the Journal of Korean Society of Ultrasound in Medicine in January 2014, and published four times per year: January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. Original articles, technical notes, topical reviews, perspectives, pictorial essays, and timely editorial materials are published in Ultrasonography covering state-of-the-art content.
Ultrasonography aims to provide updated information on new diagnostic concepts and technical developments, including experimental animal studies using new equipment in addition to well-designed reviews of contemporary issues in patient care. Along with running KSUM Open, the annual international congress of KSUM, Ultrasonography also serves as a medium for cooperation among physicians and specialists from around the world who are focusing on various ultrasound technology and disease problems and relevant basic science.
