Key Points

Males exhibited significantly higher femoral vein cross-sectional area than females across all positions.
The study included 278 healthy adults, analyzing a total of 556 lower limbs through ultrasonography.
Ultrasonographic measurements were taken in five distinct body positions to assess vein diameter variations.
Findings indicate the necessity of considering demographic parameters like age, sex, and BMI in venous measurements.
