  • Title: Venous disease. Advances in objective diagnosis.
    Author: Barnes RW, Wu KK, Hoak JC.
    Journal: Postgrad Med; 1976 Jan; 59(1):90-5. PubMed ID: 1246543.
    Abstract:
    A number of newer noninvasive or minimally invasive diagnostic techniques overcome the inaccuracies of clinical diagnosis of venous disease. Among these are Doppler ultrasound; plethysmography, especially the strain-gauge technique; the 125I fibrinogen uptake test; and radionuclide phlebography. Contrast phlebography is still the procedure of choice when diagnostic controversy remains or when facilities for the other techniques are not available.
