• Seize the opportunity
• Ask ANY questions - you will be doing many others present a favour!
• Be involved – don’t go home disappointed that you could have learned more

Overview:Overview:
Replaced venography as the “gold standard”
• High specificity• High sensitivity• Non-invasive• Accessible• Cost effective
![Page 6: Duplex Ultrasound Assessment of the Venous System · 2008-08-26 · Duplex Sonography: Normal venous flow: Lumen is hypoechoic, compressible, diameter changes with respiration Vein](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022040918/5e93c8610cdb4c28661345af/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Hand held Doppler:
• Used clinically for ~ 25yrs• Relatively poor sensitivity (30% to 50% of reflux
missed)1,2
• Poor specificity (auditory signal only, not anatomically precise)
• Cheap

Duplex Sonography:Duplex Sonography:
Normal venous flow:
Lumen is hypoechoic, compressible, diameter changes with respiration
Vein wall is thin, regular and smooth Valves appear as localised dilatations, the cusps
are thin and project obliquely. Cusps move with respiration and can be seen to approximate

Valves close due to retrograde flow – gravity, compression and Valsalva
Flow rate ~ 30m/sec required for valve closure No consensus as to what degree of reflux is

Duplex Sonography:Duplex Sonography:
Reflux:
Assess vein in saggital plane (transverse for compressibility)
SV for PW should be 25-50% of lumen Inspect entire length of vein – not simply SFJ &
SPJ Allow time for refilling Poor augmentation may be due to obstruction Make a hard copy of spectral analysis
