Overview
A number of invasive and non-invasive approaches are possible.[1]
Other Imaging Findings
Imaging Techniques
- Impedance plethysmography[2] : A venous thrombosis alters the normal response to temporary venous obstruction in a highly characteristic way. It causes a delay in emptying of the venous system after the release of the tourniquet.
- Doppler ultrasonography
- Compression ultrasound scanning of the leg veins combined with duplex measurements (to determine blood flow)
- A Doppler USG detects thrombus within a vein.
- Normal vein:free of internal echoes, compresseble.
- Acute DVT:internal echoes are present, non compressible vein.
With the color flow Doppler, motion and the direction of flow are assessed in a far better way.
