在过去的20年中，对于临床怀疑下肢静脉有深静脉血栓形成（DVT）的患者，静脉超声检查已成为初步评估的标准首要影像学技术。本文阐述了双功能超声和彩色多普勒超声在当今临床实践中对疑似下肢静脉有血栓的患者进行评估时所起的作用。它回顾了急性和慢性DVT的临床表现、鉴别诊断、技术以及诊断标准。此外，还涉及了静脉功能不全的超声评估。
Over the past 2 decades venous ultrasonography has become the standard primary imaging technique for the initial evaluation of patients for whom there is clinical suspicion of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremity veins. This article addresses the role of duplex ultrasonography and color Doppler ultrasonography in today's clinical practice for the evaluation of patients suspected of harboring a thrombus in their lower extremity veins. It reviews the clinical presentation and differential diagnoses, technique, and diagnostic criteria for acute and chronic DVT. In addition, it addresses the sonographic evaluation of venous insufficiency.
