Content
With this course you will gain a thorough understanding of the peripheral venous system. We cover normal venous anatomy, venous physiology, and venous hemodynamics of the deep and superficial systems.
Further on the course offers a solid understanding of peripheral venous pathology and the pathophysiology behind venous insufficiency, deep vein thrombosis, superficial thrombophlebitis, and post-thrombotic luminal wall changes.
Simply learning concepts regarding ultrasound imaging is not sufficient to create a competent sonographer. To truly excel, we must consider how we communicate with others. In order to answer the clinical questions, this chapter will provide a guideline regarding how to communicate with both the patient and the physician.
