Turbulent flows are typically associated with high grade arterial stenoses. Turbulence is characterized by pronounced spectral broadening often extending below the baseline as systolic flow reversal, as well as spectral contour irregularity (spiky waveform). Turbulent flows can also be encountered within aneurysms, AV malformations, and haemodialysis access grafts. The only naturally occurring area of turbulence in the vascular system is the carotid bulb. Turbulence in this region is due to increased vessel diameter, and the turbulent flow is referred to as “flow separation”.
