Book Description
The revised, updated Second Edition of this definitive reference reflects the past three years' enormous progress in the use of ultrasonic duplex scanning in vascular diagnosis. Dr. Strandness, one of the pioneers who first introduced duplex scanning, now describes new approaches to the procedure, highlights its expanding clinical role, and offers guidelines on how it can be more profitably used. The Second Edition provides more information on how duplex scanning compares with angiography and includes a new chapter, Is There a Gold Standard for the Diagnosis of Vascular Disease. Important new clinical applications discussed in detail include detection and grading of carotid artery stenosis to determine whether carotid endarterectomy is needed. The Second Edition contains over 250 illustrations and includes more full-color scans than the First Edition.
