Abstract
SummaryThe diagnosis of venous diseases and abnormalities has gained a new dimension with duplex ultrasound, which is now regarded as the gold standard for leg vein examination. The combination of B scan, doppler and colour-coding of the blood flow in duplex ultra-sound offers a simple, highly predictive, noninvasive diagnosis of venous disease.
