    I'm just writing up some of my CPD notes and came across this entry ;

    "Calcification in arteries is heard with a Doppler - 'marching soldiers' sound"

    I can't recall what this sounds like or if I have even heard it. Can anyone give any more info on this?

    I've googled "marching soldiers" and not found anything relevant.

    Thanks

    Bi-phasic sound.... one/two, one/two, left/right, left/right - the third arterial recoil sound goes missing.
