Peripheral artery disease is common in people with diabetes-related foot ulceration and a risk factor for amputation. The best method the detection or exclusion of peripheral unknown. This study investigated utility clinical examination non-invasive bedside tests screening ulceration.Some 60 presenting new-onset participated. Accuracy pulses, ankle pressure, toe toe-brachial index (TBI), ankle-brachial pressure (ABPI), pole test at ankle, transcutaneous oxygen distal tibial waveform on...
Background and objective Arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) are currently the gold standard for access, exhibiting best combination of a low complication profile with long patency period attractive pricing. Despite steady increase in use autogenous AVF recent years, there is still high rate non-maturation native fistulas. VasQ™ (Laminate Medical Technologies, Israel) an external support device AVFs designed to improve flow reduce neointimal hyperplasia at anastomotic site. Preliminary data...
To evaluate the long term outcomes of individuals who attended for transthoracic echocardiograms (TTEs) or lower limb arterial duplex scans (LLADS) and were opportunistically screened abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA).Follow up a prospective single centre pilot cohort study conducted between December 2012 September 2014 at tertiary vascular in United Kingdom. Men Women aged 65 over invited to undergo AAA screening when attending hospital TTE LLADS. Screening was performed by ultrasonographic...
Endofibrosis (EF) of the iliac arteries is a flow-limiting condition typically seen in highly trained endurance athletes. Thirty-seven athletes (74 limbs) were referred to our department with suspected EF. All patients had pre- and postexercise color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) arteries. waveform peak systolic velocity (PSV) end-diastolic (EDV) assessed postexercise. was diagnosed CDU 24 (29 limbs). Arterial wall course abnormalities detected at rest 20 (67%) symptomatic limbs 4 (22%) without...
ABSTRACT The accuracy of color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) is hampered by the presence arterial wall calcifications. B‐flow imaging may overcome these limitations. We present a case severely calcified stenosis right common femoral artery (CFA) diagnosed with aid imaging. Both CT angiography scan and CDU were limited diffuse dense showed >75% CFA. appears to improve in It clinical relevance duplex sonographic accuracy, ideally reducing need for other modalities prior surgery. © 2017...
Objectives To define a consensual approach for the conservative treatment of patients C0s-C3. Method The project was structured into two phases. first one involved group Italian specialists in angiology and/or vascular surgery with aim to compare their therapeutic choices management CEAP second phase used Delphi consensus order elaborate practical statements on these patients. Results 166 while Steering Committee 6 and panel 20 specialists. At end third round, >80% reached seven...
Background: Surveillance is considered mandatory after endovascular repair (EVR), but its impact on imaging services remains unreported. This study reports the effect of EVR surveillance resources. Methods: A single-center’s duplex database was interrogated from January 1, 2004 to 2012. All examinations requested by a vascular surgeon were reported, including preoperative abdominal aortic aneurysms, EVR, lower limb arterial and venous duplex, arteriovenous fistulae. Results: total 24 309...
Duplex ultrasound is an important tool in the assessment and management of patients with varicose veins. Over past two decades several minimally-invasive therapeutic options have become available for treatment these patients. Consequently, ultrasonographic parameters to consider changed accordingly. Ultrasound parameters, such as diameter superficial incompetent veins or their depth from skin surface amongst others, paramount importance planning a tailored either operative non-operative...
The ultrasound definition of extracranial carotid artery aneurysms (ECCAs) is unclear. threshold diameter to use for defining an as aneurysmal still debated. Similarly, the method choice measuring maximum ECCAs has not been agreed. In this paper we report case a patient with fusiform aneurysm at level bifurcation and large saccular proximal internal artery, discuss information essential acquire when are detected ultrasound.
