Overview
Coronary Doppler Imaging
This involves the study of the coronary blood flow velocity patterns. No-reflow has a pathognomonic features which is the presence of:
- Systolic flow reversal
- Reduced antegrade systolic flow
- Forward diastolic flow with a rapid deceleration slope
This method also helps in distinguishing those with microthrombi from those without.
