Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Color flow sonography permits noninvasive examination of the deep venous system in the lower extremity. In many patients, the modality is sufficiently accurate to serve as the sole diagnostic procedure for suspected deep venous thrombosis. Over 1,500 color flow sonographic examinations of the lower extremity have been performed at our institutions with various scanning techniques. For the inexperienced sonographer, we describe our current technique, which is easy, quick, accurate, and well tolerated by patients.
