Course curriculum
- Duplex assessment of lower extremity arterial disease
- Protocols per ESVS 2022, stenosis criteria by PSV and Velocity Ratio
- Features of distal assessment and spectrum interpretation in occlusion and reconstruction
- Arteries after angioplasty and stenting
- Diagnosis of restenosis and hemodynamics in the intervention zone
- Comparison of velocity parameters in native and stented vessels
- Non-atherosclerotic diseases of the lower extremity arteries
- FMD, adventitial cysts, medial calcinosis, vasculitides
- Spectral signs, differential diagnosis, interpretation errors
- Aortoiliac segment lesions: inflow, GLASS, runoff
- Technique for identifying inflow lesions
- PSV thresholds, VR, runoff assessment, and principles of GLASS classification
- Lower extremity arteries and PAT: modern assessment of perfusion
- Integration of PAT (Pulse Acceleration Time) into ischemia assessment
- Combining PAT with ABI and WIfI for limb loss risk stratification
- Nomenclature and variants of describing venous pathology
- Modern CEAP terminology, compartments, saphenous and non-saphenous trunks, perforators
- Correct report construction and designation of reflux sources
- Spectrum interpretation in the common femoral vein
- Algorithm for phasicity analysis, detection of EIV/CIV obstructions
- Examples of post-thrombotic changes and their reflection in the report
- Acute or chronic thrombosis: a modern view
- Modern SRU 2018 / SFMV 2024 classification
- Signs of thrombus organization, recurrence criteria, wording of conclusions
- Provocation of venous reflux
- Physiological maneuvers (Valsalva, augmentation, Paraná test)
- Time-based diagnostic thresholds for different venous segments
- Key information for the phlebologist (DEAR principle)
- The DEAR principle (Depth – Evaluation – Anatomy – Reflux)
- Minimum dataset for choosing ablation or sclerotherapy tactics
- Complications after venous interventions
- EHIT, PASTE, EGIT (ESVS 2022): post-ablation changes and follow-up tactics
- How to describe thrombosis in the coagulation zone and formulate the conclusion correctly
An expert course that turns routine scanning into a precise diagnostic tool. You will learn to systematically assess venous hemodynamics — from the CEAP nomenclature to complications after ablations — and to classify lesions by WIfI.
The result is reports that a vascular surgeon relies on when choosing treatment tactics.
