Evaluation of Carotid Arteries with Colour Doppler Sonography

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Applied Physics (IOSR-JAP) - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 6

Abstract

This study designed to evaluation of carotid arteries with colour doppler sonography, were the data consisted of 130 patients (71 male and 59 female), 11 variable were used to collect the data for each of them they include; Systolic blood pressure (SBP), Diastolic blood pressure (DBP), Body Mass Index (BMI), Heart Rate (HR), Plasma Total Cholesterol (PTC), Plasma Total Glyceride (PTG), Right Intima Media Thickness (Rt IMT), Left Intima Media Thickness (Lt IMT), Right Resistive Index (Rt RI) and Left Resistive Index (Lt RI). And the study was in Libya, A General Electric Doppler machine used with a Hz probe. And the result shows that the Systolic blood pressure in respect to agegroup affected linearly by patient age, where the SBP decreases by 0.23mmHg/year starting at 134mmHg. Also this study also showed that there is a direct linear relationship between the intima media thickness and the blood flow resistive index. For the Rt carotid artery concerning the normal group the RI increases by 0.23unit/cm of intima media thickness starting at 0.5. The Lt carotid as mentioned earlier it receives outstanding pressure from the heart and that usually affected the intima media as well as the RI values which hindered the correlation between the two factors in both groups as well as with the other 11 factors that mentioned earlier. For normal group the RI index increases linearly by 0.4 unit /cm of intima media thickness starting at 0.36
