- Abstract
It remains unclear whether a single complete ultrasound examination, which detects calf vein thrombosis, is as safe as a baseline rapid ultrasound examination, repeated after 1 week when negative, which examines the veins in the groin and the knee. Therefore, we compared the safety and feasibility of two diagnostic ultrasound strategies, involving rapid and complete compression ultrasound (CUS) examination.
