US of DVs in the brightness mode (B-mode) with compression maneuvers should be the first-line imaging modality for suspected DVT in patients with fractured lower extremities. 展开 关键词: ultrasonography Doppler duplex venous thromboembolism venous thrombosis ...
A comparison of upper extremity and lower extremity DVT is given. Duplex ultrasonography is the method of choice for the initial diagnosis of patients suspected with thrombosis of the upper extremities. However, in patients with isolated flow abnormalities, contrast venography should be performed. The...
Our experience underlines the importance of a multilevel case-by-case approach and the immediate venous lower limbs duplex scan evaluation in pulmonary embolism events. Our data confirm that anticoagulant alone is not effective in preventing pulmonary embolism. We believe that all the VAs of the ...

and it can identify venous stasis or ulcer as a result of long saphenous vein insufficiency. Both the B-mode and the duplex scan allow direct examination of venous valve motion and determination of valve competency. The latter technique holds promise in the evaluation of venous valve reconstructive...
Diagnostic evaluation include history, physical examination through the application of functional tests and different non-invasive procedures (Color-Duplex scan ultrasonography being the most important one). In problematic cases phlebography should be done. Treatment modalities for CVI today vary, depending...
DVT was defined by clinical assessment and by objective confirmation by duplex flow pattern, computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging venography47. Symptomatic PE was defined as a positive spiral computed tomography or pulmonary angiography, a high-probability ventilation-perfusion scan, or proxima...
Conclusions: Silent PTE occurred frequently in association with clots of lower limbs. The CT scan had a good availability and cost-effectiveness to detect clinically underestimated PTE. The incorporation of this exploration in the systematic diagnostic strategy of most patients with DVT to establish ...
