Abstract:
200 persons, average age is 59,27 (from 15-93) without vascular risk factors were studied by colour Duplex scanning. Results showed that average systolic velocity in common carotid arteries is 81,14 +/- 14,67 cm/s, average diastolic velocity is 23,27 +/- 5,15 cm/s, average diastolic velocity is 25,53 +/- 5,21 cm/s. Average systolic velocity in vertebral arteries is 42,58 +/- 7,73cm/s, average diastolic velocity is 14,68 +/- 3,63 cm/s. No statistic significantly difference of these parameters between men and women. No statistic difference of these parameters between right and left side. Systolic and diastolic velocities in common and internal carotid arteries decrease significantly with age. Other parameters do not change clearly with age
