A Dynamic Problem Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a dysfunction of the superficial and/or deep venous system of the lower extremities, where the valves become incompetent, preventing the effective return of blood to the heart. This causes reflux, venous hypertension, and its clinical manifestations: varicose veins, edema, skin changes (ochre dermatitis, lipodermatosclerosis ), and, in advanced stages, venous ulcers. Doppler ultrasound is the gold standard for its diagno

Descubre cómo la ecografía Doppler evalúa la estenosis carotídea, mide la gravedad y caracteriza las placas para prevenir un ACV. Guía completa de hallazgos.

Ultrasound is key to detecting and monitoring abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Simple screening can save lives by preventing rupture, a fatal complication.

Ultrasound diagnoses DVT by checking that the vein does not collapse under pressure. A quick and vital test to detect blood clots in the legs and prevent pulmonary embolisms.

Scrotal Doppler ultrasound is key to diagnosing varicoceles. It measures venous dilation and detects blood reflux with the Valsalva maneuver, essential in fertility studies.

Doppler ultrasound diagnoses Peripheral Arterial Disease. It measures blood flow velocity in the legs to locate and grade arterial narrowings.
