- Abstract
- To determine the comparative accuracy of two Doppler tests, the findings of 38 patients who had undergone a complete evaluation by supraorbital Doppler test, frontal Doppler test and angiography were studied. When stenosis of 60 percent or more in diameter was considered as a true positive finding, the Doppler tests of 76 internal carotid arteries of the 38 patients showed the following results. Supraorbital Doppler test: eight false positive, three false negative, and 65 correct findings, with an overall accuracy of 85%. The authors, therefore, concluded that the suprorbital Doppler test was more sensitive and accurate than the frontal Doppler test in screening the patients with possible carotid artery occulusive diseases.
