Abstract
|
|
|
|
Ultrasound is a diagnostic tool of choice for venous disease. As treatment is based on ultrasound results, accurate examination is essential and image optimization is necessary to provide objective information. Understanding the physical properties and knobology of ultrasound helps to obtain good images. To begin with, comfortable placement of the ultrasound for the examiner to use and the appropriate positioning of the patient is also important. The next step for an optimal ultrasound image is to attain good resolution to a given depth. It is also essential to appropriately utilize the provocation maneuvers when diagnosing a suspected disease, especially for the chronic venous disease.
