Overview
Noninvasive technique like Ultrasonography and impedance plethysmography are fairly accurate ways to diagnose deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) in the legs. But, both tests miss calf-vein thromboses, repeat testing often is required when initial tests are negative, and ability to assess pelvic veins is limited.
