Course curriculum
- Features of the ultrasound anatomy of the venous system of the lower extremities
- Ultrasound image optimization in the examination of the venous system of the lower extremities
- Normal and pathological venous flow
- Ultrasound manifestations of venous flow in the lower extremities
- Protocol for scanning the deep venous system of the lower limbs for thrombosis and "deep reflux"
- Diagnostic criteria for deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities
- Ultrasound manifestations of acute and chronic thrombosis
- Protocol for scanning the superficial venous system for superficial venous reflux
- Diagnostic criteria for venous reflux
- Ultrasound criteria for thrombosis of the superficial venous system
- Diagnosis of lower extremity arterial diseases: indirect methods (ankle-brachial index, segmental pressure, occlusion plethysmography) and duplex imaging. Lower extremity arterial examination protocol. Ultrasound criteria for lower extremity arterial stenoses and assessment of stenosis severity
- Duplex assessment of surgical interventions (bypass grafts: in situ, reversed vein, PTFE). The concept of inflow and outflow arteries, proximal and distal anastomoses, and their assessment. Assessment of the results of angioplasty and stenting of lower extremity arteries
The most up-to-date information on arterial and venous pathology of the lower limbs — and, most importantly, the skill to effectively assess the data obtained. You will stop hesitating at the machine and start giving conclusions that colleagues trust.
