Abstract
An ultrasound system provides Doppler spectral data indicative of a monitored moving fluid. The spectral data is analyzed according to the level of power in specified Doppler frequency ranges. Audio signals indicative of each analyzed range are generated to enable a user to audibly determine said range is in order to detect a certain condition manifested by said fluid motion.
