Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of 2 dimension and color Doppler flow imaging (2D CDFI) in detection of deep venous thrombosis of the lower limbs. Methods One hundred and one patients, 118 limbs clinically suspected as deep venous thrombosis were examined by CDFI and ascending phlebography. Results The sensitivity of ultrasonogram was 94 4% and accuracy was 98 4%. The highest incidence is 30 4% in the femoral vein. With the ratio 2 2∶1, the incidence of left lower limbs was much higher than the right. Because of different pathological changes in acute, subacute and chronic thrombosis, there are diverse character in 2D CDFI. Conclusions Deep venous thrombosis of the lower limbs can be diagnosed by 2D CDFI, which is a noninvasive, easy and accurate method.
