2. Ultrasonography of chronic venous insufficiency of the legs

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonography_of_chronic...

   The ASV which is often responsible for varicose veins, can be located at the 'alignment sign', where it is seen to align with the femoral vessels. On ultrasound at the saphenofemoral junction in the groin, the common femoral vein (CFV) with the GSV and the common femoral artery (CFA) create an image called the Mickey Mouse sign.

3. Doppler ultrasonography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_ultrasonography

   In "antegrade" flow, the blood flows according to the normal flow within the circulatory system (e.g. veins flow towards the heart while arteries flows away from the heart). In "retrograde" flow, the flow would reverse (e.g. veins flow away from heart or arteries flow towards the heart). However, "retrograde" flow can be both abnormal or normal.

4. Medical ultrasound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_ultrasound

   Medical ultrasound includes diagnostic techniques (mainly imaging techniques) using ultrasound, as well as therapeutic applications of ultrasound. In diagnosis, it is used to create an image of internal body structures such as tendons, muscles, joints, blood vessels, and internal organs, to measure some characteristics (e.g., distances and velocities) or to generate an informative audible sound.

5. Ultrasonography of deep vein thrombosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonography_of_deep...

   Unlike arterial ultrasonography, venous ultrasonography is carried out with the probe in a transversal position, (perpendicular to the vein axis), displaying cross-sections of the veins. [4] All collateral veins are better detected this way, including perforator veins , but of most importance is the detection of venous thrombosis .

6. Ultrasound-enhanced systemic thrombolysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasound-enhanced...

   Studies examining the use of ultrasound enhanced thrombolysis for the treatment of deep vein thromboses (DVTs), or a clot located in the veins, are a bit more sparse, with only 1 randomized control trial up to 2018, and with many retrospective studies. A meta-analysis in 2018 looked at the efficacy of ultrasound and found that a large majority ...

8. Intravascular ultrasound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intravascular_ultrasound

   It allows the application of ultrasound technology, such as piezoelectric transducer or CMUT, to see from inside blood vessels out through the surrounding blood column, visualizing the endothelium (inner wall) of blood vessels. [1] The arteries of the heart (the coronary arteries) are the most frequent imaging

9. Intima–media thickness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intima–media_thickness

   IMT can be measured using external ultrasound in large arteries relatively close to the skin (e.g. the carotid, brachial, radial, or femoral arteries). External ultrasound methods have the advantage of being non-invasive, comparatively low cost and convenient. Deeper internal arteries, such as the coronary arteries require special intravascular ...
