With the purpose of investigation of Doppler velocities of circulation in common carotid artery (CCA) in patients with ischemic heart disease with and without myocardial infarction (MI) in anamnesis 36 patients of (55.7±8.7) years were examined. According to criterion of presence or absence of MI in anamnesis all the patients were divided into two groups: research and comparison one.The average values of Doppler velocities, resistance index, pulsatory index, lumen diameters and intima-media thickness (IMT) of CCA were investigated. The increase of Doppler velocities in patients with MI has been revealed. It seems to be related with increased IMT and decreased lumen diameter of CCA.
