Abstract
The Doppler angle is adjusted to a value close to the optimum Doppler angle DAopt, typically amounting to 60.degree., between the direction of an echographic excitation and the axis of a blood vessel in an echographic image, based on prior designation of an initial point in the vessel. The method includes a first measurement of the Doppler angle DA1 in a first, predetermined excitation direction, comparison of DA1 with Daopt, formation of .DELTA..theta.=.vertline.DAopt-DA1.vertline., and correction of the direction of the echographic excitation by the value .DELTA..theta. in order to shift it to a second direction.
