    • The present invention generally relates to medical devices, and more particularly to an improved medical imaging device. In one embodiment, an imaging device includes a drive shaft having proximal and distal ends received within the lumen; an imaging transducer coupled to the distal end of the drive shaft and positioned at the distal portion of the elongate member; and a flow detector coupled to the imaging transducer. The flow detector may include a forward facing ultrasound transducer configured to emit energy in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the imaging device and detect a Doppler shift in the received echoes. In the case where the imaging device is located in a vessel having blood flow, such information may be used to calculate the velocity of the blood flow. The imaging device may be configured to be located in a catheter or guidewire.
    • 本发明一般涉及医疗装置,更具体地涉及一种改进的医学成像装置。 在一个实施例中,成像装置包括驱动轴,其具有容纳在内腔内的近端和远端; 耦合到所述驱动轴的远端并定位在所述细长构件的远端部分处的成像传感器; 以及耦合到成像换能器的流量检测器。 流量检测器可以包括面向前的超声换能器,其构造成在成像装置的纵向轴线的方向上发射能量,并且检测所接收的回波中的多普勒频移。 在成像装置位于具有血流的血管的情况下,可以使用这样的信息来计算血流速度。 成像装置可以被配置为位于导管或导丝中。
