ABSTRACT:
A device for the measurement of the speed of blood flows on the basis of a sequence of N successive echographic signals, comprising an M-point fixed-echo elimination device (200), followed by a unit (300) for measuring the speed by correlation/summation/interpolation of the N-M+1 independent signals supplied by the fixed-echo elimination device (220). In accordance with the invention, the measuring unit (300) comprises N.sub.F parallel processing channels (310j), each of which is formed by a filter (311j), a memory (312j) for storing the filtered N-M+1 signals, and a corrlation device (313j) which supplies N-M intercorrelation functions, and on the other hand an adder (320) which forms the mean value of the N.sub.F (N-M) intercorrelation functions obtained, an estimate of the relevant speed being supplied by an interpolation circuit (330) acts on the mean intercorrelation function.
