Peak Systolic Velocity in Biochemistry Formulas

Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) is an index measured in spectral Doppler ultrasound. The peak systolic velocity corresponds to each tall “peak” in the spectrum window. And is denoted by v_systole. Peak Systolic Velocity is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Peak Systolic Velocity is always positive.
