Providing an overview of performing vascular ultrasounds, the physiology of blood flow, and vascular pathology, the book explores the various vascular conditions most investigated through ultrasound. Conditions covered range from extracranial cerebrovascular arterial diseases to chronic venous disease in the lower limbs. For each disorder, the authors discuss:

Anatomy
Pathology
Clinical presentations
Differential diagnosis
What doctors need to know for each condition
Normal findings and criteria for disease as seen by ultrasound
Comprehensive protocols for scanning
Ultrasound images and observations that should be collected for best practice reporting
