A medical measuring apparatus having an ultrasonic wave probe adapted to make contact with a body surface and two cathode ray tubes. The probe functions to deliver outputs associated with a blood flow speed and a blood vessel diameter deviation output. An output representing an amount of blood flow is formed on the basis of both the outputs associated with the blood flow speed and the blood vessel diameter deviation output. The output representing the amount of blood flow is displayed on the first cathode ray tube, while the blood vessel diameter deviation output and the pulse output having the width corresponding to the blood vessel diameter are displayed on the second cathode ray tube.

Medical measuring apparatus

An ultrasonic wave probe comprises an ultrasonic wave transmitting vibrator and a pair of ultrasonic wave receiving vibrators in order to measure blood flow velocity. The receiving vibrators are adapted to receive reflected waves of an ultrasonic wave which is emitted from the transmitting vibrator and reflected from a measured point at different receiving angles and the difference between the receiving angles of the receiving vibrators is always kept to a given value. The ultrasonic wave probe further includes an ultrasonic wave transmitting and receiving vibrator for measuring blood vessel diameter deviation at the same time as the measurement of the blood flow velocity.
