Explanation

2-D Doppler is a type of medical imaging technique used to visualize the inside of the body. It combines two methods: two-dimensional imaging to create a picture of an organ or tissue, and Doppler technology to show blood flow. This combination allows doctors to see both the structure of an organ and how blood is moving through it. It's often used in heart examinations, as it can show both the heart's shape and size, and how well blood is flowing through the heart's chambers and valves.
