dupleksskaneerimisel

Dupleksskaneerimisel, also known as duplex scanning, is a diagnostic imaging technique used primarily in vascular ultrasound. It combines two distinct ultrasound modes: B-mode imaging and Doppler ultrasound. B-mode provides a real-time, two-dimensional anatomical image of the blood vessels, allowing visualization of their structure, wall thickness, and any surrounding tissues. Doppler ultrasound, on the other hand, assesses blood flow within these vessels.

This dual capability allows for simultaneous evaluation of both the vessel's physical characteristics and the hemodynamics within it. The Doppler component can detect the presence, direction, and velocity of blood flow. By analyzing the Doppler signal, clinicians can identify abnormalities such as stenosis (narrowing), occlusion (blockage), or aneurysms (bulges). The ability to see the vessel's anatomy while simultaneously assessing blood flow makes dupleksskaneerimisel invaluable for diagnosing a wide range of vascular conditions, including deep vein thrombosis, peripheral artery disease, and carotid artery disease. It is a non-invasive and safe method, often used as a first-line investigation for suspected vascular problems. The information gathered helps in diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring the progression of vascular diseases.
