Abstract
An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system is provided which utilizes a multivariate processor to discriminate between Doppler power signals which were produced by moving tissue, and Doppler power signals which were produced by fluid flow. Discriminated moving tissue Doppler power signals are displayed in a three dimensional spatial presentation.
