Role of Doppler Ultrasound In Lower Limb Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) occurs due to incompetence or weakness of walls of superficial veins, deep veins or perforators of lower limbs. Varicose veins though presenting as a cosmetic deformity but in truth they are many times indicators of a more dangerous underlying disorder. This study aims to evaluate the role of Doppler ultrasound in lower limb CVI. Prospective cross sectional study carried out in the department of Radiodiagnosis of a tertiary healthcare institute for a period of 1 year from December 2011 to December 2012. Total 28 patients with clinical complaints of CVI were evaluated. The results were tabulated and discussed. Findings of CVI on Doppler ultrasound are also discussed. The manuscript is concluded with limitations of study and future directions.
