Flow
Blood volume per time measured in: cm3/s.
The sonographic detection of blood flow in vascular ultrasound is limited by factors such as tissue motion (clutter), attenuation properties of the intervening tissue, and slow or low-volume flow.

Different flow types in human body:
Behaves like stationary tissue = stagnant flow.
Flow with consistent velocities across a vessel = laminar flow.
Laminar flow passes through a stricture or stenosis (in the center fast flow, near the walls the flow spirals) = vortex flow.
Flow with equal velocity = plug flow.
Flow at different velocities that fluctuates = turbulent flow.

B-Flow
B-flow is an ultrasound imaging mode, which shows flowing blood as well as the vessel walls.
Flow Rate
The flow rate describes the volume of fluid passing through a given vessel per time unit. The flow rate is measured in milliliters per second ml/sec or liters per minute l/min.

See also Poiseulles Law.
Flowmeter
A flowmeter is a device to measure velocity or volume of flow of liquids or gases passing a given point per unit of time.

See also Time of Flight.
Flowprobe
A flowprobe (or flowsensor) measures flow with a transducer by insonating vessels to calculate and depict volume flow of blood.
