This work aims to provide an understanding of the principles and practice of vascular ultrasound. Some of the basic theory behind the science and instrumentation of ultrasound is considered to help in understanding the function of scanner controls, and enabling the reader to obtain optimal images and Doppler recordings. Specific disorders of the arterial and venous systems are covered and the techniques for diagnosing these problems described. Examples of normal and abnormal images and Doppler recordings are included and the interpretation of these discussed. To conclude, some aspects of providing a vascular ultrasound service are examined.

Introduction. Ultrasound and Imaging. Doppler Ultrasound. Creation of a Colour Flow Image. Blood flow and its Appearance on Colour Flow Imaging. Factors that Influence the Doppler Spectrum and Measurements. Optimising the Scan. Ultrasound Assessment of the Extracranial Cerebral Circulation. Duplex Assessment of Lower Limb Arterial Disease.
