Role of Colour Doppler in Evaluation of Venous Abnormalities of Lower Limb: A Prospective Cross Sectional Study
Background: Venous abnormalities in the lower limbs are a very prevalent cause of morbidity. Despite clinical diagnosis being the cornerstone, Color Doppler Ultrasound has become the research of choice for confirming the diagnosis of lower limb venous disease. This study looked into the role of Color Doppler ultrasound in various venous disorders of the lower leg, and the sonographic findings were compared to surgical and clinical findings.The participants in this study were 100 individuals of different ages and genders who came with clinically suspected entities affecting the lower leg venous system. Our findings demonstrated a clear male preponderance (65%) in the age group 21-40 years, with a 41 percent incidence rate. Isolated varicose veins were the most common, accounting for 58%, followed by isolated DVT (29%), varicose veins with thrombophlebitis (5%), DVT with thrombophlebitis (5%), DVT with varicose veins (2%), and hematoma (1%). (1 percent). The results were 100 percent accurate and matched the procedure perfectly. Color Doppler Ultrasound is unique because of its great feasibility, accessibility, and cost effectiveness. Its dynamism is also used to generate fluctuations in blood flow by a variety of movements conducted by patients, radiologists, and machine factors in order to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.
