Abstract
In this prospective pilot trial, B-flow ultrasonographic (US) imaging was compared with color duplex flow US in the evaluation of internal carotid arterial stenosis. Despite almost excellent interobserver variability, none of the investigated B-flow imaging parameters correlated with those of duplex US. In conclusion, the investigated B-flow imaging parameters cannot be used in evaluating internal carotid arterial stenosis.
