Value of combined use of ultrasound technologies in the evaluation of deep vein thrombosis in lower extremity

2012 
Objective To investigate the application value of the combined use of ultrasound technologies in evaluation of deep vein thrombosis in lower extremity. Methods By combined use of ultrasound technologies, 269 patients with deep vein thrombosis in lower extremity were detected for deep vein, abdominal and pelvic organs, echocardiography. The relationship between thrombus formation and other physical diseases were analyzed. Results Of the 269 patients, 213 cases had thrombosis occurred in the left side, 50 cases had thrombosis occurred in the right side, and six cases had thrombosis occurred in both left and right sides. The most common complications included cerebral vascular accident and malignant tumor. Combined use of ultrasound technologies can display the direct or indirect signs of complications (57 cases). Conclusion The preferred choice for the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis in lower extremity is color Doppler ultrasound. Combined use of ultrasound technologies provides useful guidance for the determination of related causes and the treatment and prognosis of the disease.
