was changed:
Doppler shift or dopplerDoppler effect is named after austrian physicist Christian doppler. In ultrasonography, it is defined as the change in frequency of sound wave due to a reflector moving towards or away from an object, which in the probecase of ultrasound is the transducer.
Doppler equation
F = 2fo ( v(v/c)cos(Q)
where:
- F is doppler frequency shift
- fo is transmitted frequency from ultrasound probe
- v is the velocity of moving reflector
- c is the velocity of sound in the medium
- Q is the angle between ultrasound beam and axis of flow

Named after Austrian physicist, Christian Doppler.
