Abstract

We present the case of a 75-year-old woman with suspected giant cell arteritis. In the diagnostic procedure, we used B-flow ultrasound, a non-Doppler technology for blood flow imaging. The advantages of this technique and its possible role in the diagnosis of giant cell arteritis are discussed.
