Physiological flow profiles in nvUS. Physiological flow profiles in the various parts of the carotid vessels differ. The normal flow curve in ICA (first panel) is characterized by one systolic peak with less pulsatility due to a higher constant diastolic flow compared to ECA (second panel) and CCA. The last curve shows the more pulsatile flow profile in CCA, presenting with combined characteristics of ICA and ECA flow profiles
