Fig. 5 Renal artery velocity measurements with transgastric vascular ultrasonography were obtained by placing ultrasound probe opposite from renal artery to be imaged. Blood flow velocity at origin of this normal right renal artery was measured at 0-degree angle of Doppler insonation by placing transgastric ultrasound probe in line with left anterolateral wall of aorta. Renal artery blood flow (moving away from transducer) is represented by Doppler signals below baseline. Doppler signals above baseline represent blood flow in abdominal aorta recorded at junction of right renal artery and abdominal aorta.
