A new comprehensive ultrasonic diagnostic method for celiac artery compression syndrome that hybridizes “arterial compression hook sign” and peak systolic velocity

ConclusionOur results showed that if arterial compression hook sign determined by B-mode ultrasound, EPSV  >  226 cm/s, and IPSV decreases by ≥ 68 cm/s, then CAC can be detected with high specificity.Graphic abstract
