Title: Color doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis
Abstract: Objective To explore the value of color doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Methods 36 patients with lower extremity DVT treated from January 2009 to December 2009 in our hospital were detected by color doppler ultrasound. Results The accurate rate of deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremity was 100.00%. 25 patients developed acute DVT.Two-dimension ultrasound showed the veins with embolism were widen, with low to moderate level of echo,without thickening dissepiments, and the lumens could not be press to closing. CDFI revealed signs of strip blood stream sign or without the signs. 11 patients had subacute or chronic DVT. Two-dimension ultrasound showed no obvious limit between dissepiments and thrombus, with thickening disaepiments and high level of echo. CDFI revealed signs of strip blood stream and affluent collateral branch blood stream. Conclusions Color doppler ultrasound is accurate and easy to run in the diagnosis of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis.It is worth popularizing.
