    Absence of the portal system in a first trimester case associated with hygroma and aorto-umbilical fistula. (A): Transverse plane of the upper abdomen with color Doppler applied, showing umbilical cord insertion, stomach, the prominent hepatic artery and no afferent liver venous perfusion; (B): midsagittal plane reconstructed from a three-dimensional volume acquisition were the crown-rump ...

    Taking this one stage further, the clue word can hint at the word or words to be abbreviated rather than giving the word itself. For example: "About" for C or CA (for "circa"), or RE. "Say" for EG, used to mean "for example". More obscure clue words of this variety include: "Model" for T, referring to the Model T.

    Weather radar in Norman, Oklahoma with rainshaft Weather (WF44) radar dish University of Oklahoma OU-PRIME C-band, polarimetric, weather radar during construction. Weather radar, also called weather surveillance radar (WSR) and Doppler weather radar, is a type of radar used to locate precipitation, calculate its motion, and estimate its type (rain, snow, hail etc.).

  5. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

    The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift), named after Austrian physicist Christian Doppler who proposed it in 1842, is the difference between the observed frequency and the emitted frequency of a wave for an observer moving relative to the source of the waves. It is commonly heard when a vehicle sounding a siren approaches, passes and recedes from ...

  6. Radar detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_detector

    A radar detector is an electronic device used by motorists to detect if their speed is being monitored by police or law enforcement using a radar gun. Most radar detectors are used so the driver can reduce the car's speed before being ticketed for speeding. In general sense, only emitting technologies, like doppler RADAR, or LIDAR can be

  7. Man-portable radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-portable_radar

    The Ground Observer 12 (GO 12) is a medium-range pulse-doppler radar for ground and coastal surveillance. The system (MTBF > 7100 h) is made in Ditzingen, Germany. The main component, the sensor unit, only weighs 16 kg, which makes it a highly mobile system. The GO 12 uses mechanical scan technology with a continuous coverage of an angle of ...

  8. Acoustic Doppler current profiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_Doppler_Current...

    Three common methods are used to calculate the Doppler shift and thus the water velocity along the acoustic beams. The first method uses a monochromatic transmit pulse and is referred to as "incoherent" or "narrowband". The method is robust and provides good quality mean current profiles but has limited space-time resolution.

  9. Doppler echocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_echocardiography

    Doppler echocardiography is a procedure that uses Doppler ultrasonography to examine the heart. [1] An echocardiogram uses high frequency sound waves to create an image of the heart while the use of Doppler technology allows determination of the speed and direction of blood flow by utilizing the Doppler effect .
