Key result
Color tissue Doppler echocardiography detects right jugular vein thrombosis, aiding upper extremity vein diagnosis.
Why the study?
Tissue Doppler echocardiography may provide additional diagnostic information for upper extremity vein thrombosis, but its contribution is not well established.
Case Report (n=1)
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Color tissue Doppler may aid bedside venous mass detection in select cases; leaves open routine diagnostic adoption pending validation.
Lazaros et al. (2000) conducted a case report in Upper extremities venous thrombosis (n=1). Tissue Doppler echocardiography was evaluated on Diagnosis of upper extremity vein thrombosis. Color tissue Doppler echocardiography successfully demonstrated an intraluminal mass in the right jugular vein, contributing to the diagnosis of upper extremity vein thrombosis.
