This is a survey of the uses and methods of duplex Doppler in the arterial and venous systems. Topics receiving special emphasis include, haemodynamics, venous thrombosis, applications to pregnancy, carotid artery evaluation and the assessment of lower extremity.

A detailed, clearly written and up-to-date account of the application of color duplex Doppler sonography in the diagnosis of pathologic conditions of the human venous system. Basic principles of duplex and color Doppler sonography are discussed, and examination techniques clearly explained. The interpretation of findings is elucidated with the assistance of numerous high-quality illustrations. All chapters are written by recognized experts in the field. Ideal for all those who are interested in sonography of the venous system.

This book describes in detail the use of duplex ultrasound for exploration of the superficial veins and their pathology. It has a practical orientation, presenting numerous clinical situations and explaining how to identify the different sources of reflux, especially in the groin. The investigation of pathology of the saphenous trunks, perforators and side branches is described in detail. As duplex ultrasound plays an important role during various venous surgical procedures, its application pre, intra and postoperatively is presented. Furthermore, the sonographic appearances of thrombotic pathology of superficial and deep veins, edema and other conditions that may be observed while exploring the veins are fully described. The book is based on the authors’ extensive clinical experience and is intended to assist fellow practitioners who want to learn more about the technique it will be equally valuable for physicians and technicians. A wealth of informative images is included with the aim of covering every potential situation.

​This text provides a comprehensive resource and step-by-step guide to the office based procedures that would commonly occur in an andrology practice. The main purpose of the text is to serve as a “How-to” guide for urology providers and staff to help with either initial training or as a refresher prior to performing the procedures. Written by experts in the field, each chapter begins with information on necessary equipment and shows a series of images (photos and illustrations) on key points during the procedure, including tips and tricks of the trade. Atlas of Office Based Andrology Procedures provides a valuable resource for urologists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants in practice, residents and fellows in urological training, as well as nurses and medical assistants who help with these procedures.

This large format book is the definitive text on vascular surgery written by expert editors and contributors. It is well supported by exceptional illustrative material. The book is invaluable to all those who work in vascular laboratories as wel.l as internists, cardiologists, vascular laboratory directors and staff, general surgeons involved in vascular surgery and the vascular surgery community in general Noninvasive Vascular Diagnosis comprehensively covers all aspects of noninvasive evaluation of the circulatory system in the extremities. The increasing popularity of noninvasive techniques is not reflected in the number of comprehensive works on the topic and it is clear from the success of the first edition that the demand for an updated volume is increasing.

This comprehensive textbook on current neurovascular examination includes continuous wave Doppler sonography, duplex sonography with B-mode imaging, pulsed Doppler & color-coded Doppler flow imaging, as well as Doppler sonography of the intracranial arteries. The book reflects the authors' 17-year experience in this field. It includes chapters on basic technology, anatomy & haemodynamics, & introduces the various examination techniques. The criteria for the different lesions are extensively discussed together with the most common pitfalls. The key features of the book are: physical & technical principles; anatomic principles; haemodynamic principles; Doppler sonography of the cervical vessels-examination technique & differentiation; diagnostic parameters of Doppler spectral analysis; duplex scanning of the cervical vessels; periorbital Doppler examination; Doppler examination of the basal cerebral arteries (transcranial or intracranial doppler sonography); stenoses & occlusions of the extracranial carotid system; stenoses & occlusions of the subclavian artery; stenoses & occlusions of the brachiocephalic trunk; stenoses & occlusions of the vertebral arteries; intracranial doppler sonography in the investigations of cerebrovascular stenoses & occlusions; fistulas & angiomas; serial examinations & monitoring; sample documentation sheets.

Venous Ultrasound 2e is the essential text for anyone involved in the treatment of chronic venous disease. It provides specific information on ultrasound as it is applied to chronic insufficiency, including history, general techniques, examples of anatomy, and protocols for performing ultrasound on patients, and discussions on key aspects of interpretation of sonographic findings. Updated to include the outcome and impact of three recent studies, the ATTRACT trial, the EVRA study, and the VIDIO imaging trial. An entire chapter is dedicated to iliac venous and stent imaging for those interested in expanding practice based on the mentioned studies. Also included is specific protocol for imaging of the pelvic area with focus on the pelvic congestion and reflux affecting this anatomic area. This text demonstrates that as imaging techniques improve, so too will the understanding of venous pathologies increase and the burdens of their respective pathologies. Pelvic Congestion, iliofemoral and late stage disease can be interrogated with a non-invasive approach using the techniques included prior to interventional procedures. This fully updated new edition includes coverage of new ablation techniques which include non- thermal and non- tumescent therapies for venous insufficiency – these have unique ultrasound properties on what to see, look for and observe in intra and post- operative situations. Focusing on the fundamentals that every phlebologist needs to know, the color illustrations and numerous line drawings complement the text for a complete learning experience. Key features: Covers anatomy related to venous insufficiency and obstruction Protocols with step by step approaches for those new to certain exams Includes useful diagrams and images to aid understanding Thoroughly up to date, with all the latest information for those practicing venous therapies Venous Ultrasound 2e is valuable for sonographers and physicians alike; including phlebologists, general and vascular surgeons, physicians, radiologists, angiologists, interventional cardiologist, mid-levels, and nurses who work in this area.

Written by an internationally recognized pioneer in duplex scanning, this book shows readers how to use this technique in evaluating patients with arterial and venous disease. This new Third Edition is broader in scope and more clinical in focus, with specific guidelines on the indications for testing and practical advice on how to perform the examination and interpret the results. New images--including more than 100 full-color Doppler scans--give the book a fresh, state-of-the-art look. Ten experts from the University of Washington have been invited to contribute to this edition, adding their clinical experience and insights. A Brandon-Hill recommended title.
