Underwater Sonography of Leg Veins
Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders(2019)
Abstract
This proof of concept study of six persons (12 legs) was performed both at poolside and with legs submerged. Vein diameter and reflux times were assessed. Water immersion resulted in smaller vein diameters, decreased reflux in limbs that showed poolside reflux, and increased spontaneous vein flow. Hydrostatic pressure was calculated as the depth of the water submersion.
