Zusammenfassung
Obwohl die (Farb-)Duplexsonographie zur Messung der Blutströmung in den Mesenterialarterien
schon vielfältig untersucht wurde und bei Darmerkrankungen eingesetzt worden ist,
differieren die Untersuchungsprotokolle erheblich, da die Untersuchungstechnik bisher
nicht ausreichend standardisiert worden ist. Es herrscht insbesondere keine Übereinstimmung
bezüglich des Messortes und der zu erhebenden Messwerte. Lediglich hinsichtlich des
Einschallwinkels besteht Einigkeit (< 60°). Anhand einer Literatursuche wurden die
Untersuchungsmethoden und Ergebnisse analysiert. Diese Analyse soll als Grundlage
für eine prospektive, multizentrische Studie zur Ermittlung von Normwerten dienen.
Duplex Sonography of Visceral Arteries - A Review of the Literature
Mesenterial bloodflow has been investigated routinely using colour Doppler ultrasound
especially in patients with bowel disease. Examination protocols, however, differ
considerably, because no standard technique has been established so far. Whereas there
is agreement about the angle of ultrasonic application (< 60°), neither the exact
location nor the relevant examination parameters have been standardized. Based on
a search of the relevant literature, examination techniques and results were analysed.
These findings are to serve as a basis for a prospective multi-center study for the
determination of standard values.
