B-Flow is a new imaging technique which uses General Electric's Digitally Encoded Ultrasound technology to provide direct visualization of blood echoes in grey-scale imaging. This allows simultaneous imaging of blood flow and vessel walls with a high frame rate and high spatial resolution without information on velocity and direction. This promising technique which improves early detection of vascular disease could modify our routine practice in a near future.
