PY - 2014 T2 - Ma and Mateer's Emergency Ultrasound, 3e AB - Ultrasound evaluation for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is one of the 11 core ultrasound applications for emergency physicians as listed in the 2008 American College of Emergency Physicians guidelines.1 This evaluation typically consists of a limited compression ultrasound of the proximal lower extremities. Although different from a typical “duplex” examination performed in many vascular laboratories in the United States, which consists of a combination of whole leg compression ultrasound and Doppler ultrasound, limited compression ultrasound has been widely studied as the initial investigative tool for the diagnosis of DVT.2,3 SN - PB - The McGraw-Hill Companies CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/04/19 UR - accessemergencymedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=57794381 ER -
