While we're on the subject of Ultrasound Right Lower Extremity For DVT ...
Today, I did better than Wordle and Connections combined:
TECHNIQUE: The deep venous system of the lower extremity was examined from the groin (we can use this word here, right?) through the popliteal fossa utilizing a combination of real time ultrasound with compression. Duplex imaging performed using color flow and spectral doppler.
PROVIDED CLINICAL INDICATION: M79.661-Right calf pain Right leg pain
ADDITIONAL CLINICAL INDICATION: None available
COMPARISON: None available
INTERPRETATION:
RIGHT:
The visualized GREAT SAPHENOUS vein is normal at the insertion into the common femoral.
The COMMON FEMORAL vein demonstrates normal flow and compressibility.
The PROFUNDA insertion is normal.
The FEMORAL vein demonstrates normal flow and compressibility.
The POPLITEAL vein demonstrates normal flow and compressibility.
The POSTERIOR TIBIAL vein demonstrates normal flow and compressibility.
How's yours?

Constant swelling in my leg thanks to some damage to the veins.

After the test. Relearned it with two knee replacements and a dislocated replacement requiring a secondary replacement. (Re-replacement?) Did I mentioned a Birmingham hip reline followed several yrs later with a full hip?
