Detection of coronary blood flow associated with right coronary ostial stenosis by means of transthoracic Doppler echocardiography

J Am Soc Echocardiogr. 1998 Oct;11(10):984-5. doi: 10.1016/s0894-7317(98)70142-7.

Abstract

We report a case of ostial stenosis of the right coronary artery. Transthoracic echocardiography combined with Doppler flow velocity measurement and color flow imaging allowed noninvasive evaluation of disordered flow caused by stenosis.
