Kate,
In response to your private e-mail, étagé (levels, steps) here probably means \'quantitated\' -but the Doppler measurements always are, and such clarification is not made in English.

As for Echo-Doppler vs. ultrasound, \'ultrasound\' is used for everything that does not involve the heart. Your text mentions stents, so I assumed they were implanted in the coronary arteries, and that\'s why I proposed \"Echo\".

However on a second look now I see that they talk about decubitus, so if the text refers to the extremities, then \"Doppler Ultrasound\" is what you want :-)
