A new simplified method of measurement and recording of time averaged blood flow profiles in superficial arteries in man, using an ultrasonic pulse flowmeter IMP-30, is described.
The results of model investigations of flows in tubes, and subsequently
preliminary results of measurements in carotid and femoral arteries are discussed.
