. Fig. 3.41a–c (Atlas) Pelvic veins– normal ultrasound ndings (see . Fig. 2.2).
a Like in the vena cava (VC), blood ow in the iliac veins is subject to respiratory phasicity. The resulting variation in diameter is apparent in the time-motion mode (right part of a). In slender individuals, the iliac vein is also compressible (KOMP). b Compression ultrasound of pelvic veins is reliable only in slender patients. Therefore, incompressibility is not a reliable indicator of thrombosis in this territory, while compressibility rules out thrombosis. The example illustrates compressibility in the time- motion mode (arrow). c The pelvic veins (common iliac vein/V.I.C and external iliac vein/V.I.E) take an arched course through the true pelvis posterior to the arteries of the same name (A). The internal iliac vein (V.I.I) enters the common iliac vein on its posterior aspect at its lowest point (ow toward transducer, coded in red). There is respiratory phasicity of venous ow, and younger individuals (as in this case) sometimes also show cardiac pulsatility. In addition, a second pelvic vein (red) enters the common iliac vein (blue) slightly above the internal iliac vein
. Fig. 3.42 (Atlas) Venous Doppler waveform.
Just below the inguinal ligament, the common femoral vein (V.F.C) divides into the deep femoral vein (V.P.F) and the supercial femoral vein (V.F.S). Flow in the veins is characterized by respiratory uctuation when no proximal obstruction (thrombus, compression) is present. The Doppler waveform illustrates the respiratory variation in ow velocity in the deep femoral vein. Venous ow velocity decreases with increas­ing intra-abdominal pressure during inspiration. In this young woman, there is additional cardiac modulation of venous ow, which even perists during expiration. With the PRF adjusted to venous ow, the femoral artery close to the transducer shows aliasing (A) and reversed ow in diastole (arrows)
. Fig. 3.43 (Atlas) Normal valve function– gray-scale imaging.
a Under good insonation conditions, normal valve function is apparent on gray-scale imaging. The valve (VK) depicted in the supercial femoral vein (V.F.S) just before it receives the deep femoral vein (V.P.F) is shown during expiration (valve open) in the left gray-scale image and during inspiration (valve closed) in the right image. The cusps prevent backward ow toward the periphery during the inspiration-induced increase in intra-abdominal pressure. The respiratory variation in blood ow is documented in the Doppler waveform. Flow toward the transducer is increased in expiration and decreased in inspiration. Flow may even drop to zero, and the short transient reux until valve closure may be absent if the sample volume is placed near a valve

. Fig. 3.44a–e (Atlas) Pelvic vein thrombosis.
a The left iliac vein coursing posterior to the iliac artery (red) has low echogenicity and is markedly dilated. These ndings, along with the absence of ow signals, indicate acute thrombosis. b The thrombus protrudes into the vena cava (V.C), and there is marginal blood ow along the thrombus entering from the right iliac vein (A.I.C=common iliac artery).
c Proximal venous stenosis leads to reduced ow and loss of respiratory phasicity in the left supercial femoral vein (VFS) (. Fig.3.24). d With thrombosis extending into the common femoral vein, collateral ow occurs through the deep femoral vein (VPF), where ow is retrograde
(blue, away from transducer), and through pelvic collaterals. e Beginning recanalization with blood ow toward the heart (red) along the thrombus (T) in the common iliac vein (V.I.C)

a Follow-up ultrasound after acute thrombosis shows a shrunken lumen of the common iliac vein as well as ow signals, indicating beginning recana­lization (smaller diameter compared with recent thrombosis). Flow in the vena cava (V.C) is displayed in blue (due to transducer position) (A=aorta). b Retrograde ow in the deep femoral vein (V.P.F; blue, away from transducer; below the baseline in the Doppler waveform) indicates inadequate or absent drainage at the pelvic level, which is due to descending pelvic thrombosis in the case presented here

. Fig. 3.46a, b (Atlas) Pelvic vein thrombus surrounded by owing blood.
a In this young woman with scintigraphically proven pulmonary embolism, ultrasound showed patent deep leg veins, while there were thrombi in the iliac vein. Unlike recanalization with central ow signals (as shown in . Fig.3.45 (Atlas)), the fresh thrombus (TH) in the external iliac vein (V.I.E) is attached to the wall and surrounded by owing blood. b More proximally, close to the junction with the internal iliac vein, the thrombus is surrounded by owing blood posteriorly. The ow obstruction produces a high-frequency, continuous signal (with loss of respiratory phasicity) typical of venous stenosis. The peak ow velocity is 50cm/s. With the PRF adjusted to venous ow, there is aliasing in the artery anterior to the vein. The thrombus is indicated by arrows. The Doppler waveform from the uninvolved common femoral vein distal to the thrombus is not shown. The patent lumen of the common femoral vein is relatively wide, and respiratory phasicity is only slightly reduced. A thrombus in an otherwise patent lumen as in this case may be overlooked if only the wave­form from the common femoral vein is analyzed, even if it is compared with the contralateral waveform and valve function is evaluated. Routine venography may likewise fail to identify such mural thrombi in an otherwise patent iliac vein or to dierentiate them from ow phenomena
. Fig. 3.47 (Atlas) Loss of respiratory phasicity due to obstructed venous drainage.
a Flow obstruction in a partially thrombosed vein eliminates or reduces respiratory phasicity and results in a higher- frequency ow signal in the Doppler waveform, unless the blood is drained through collaterals (similar to the situation in arterial stenosis). b Since some residual respiratory variation may still be present, the waveform should be compared with the other side. In the example, respiratory phasicity is markedly reduced on the aected side compared with the contralateral side. The common femoral vein (V.FEM.COM, blue) receives the great saphenous vein (V.S.M, blue) and a deep femoral vein (V.PRF.F) displayed in red (ow toward transducer)

. Fig. 3.48 (Atlas) Collateral circulation in pelvic vein thrombosis (see . Fig.3.49 (Atlas)).
The degree of recanalization is not always easy to estimate in older thrombosis of the external iliac vein. The shrunken vein is more dicult to evaluate along its course into the true pelvis and must be dierentiated from collaterals such as the epigastric veins, which arise at the level of the inguinal ligament and, when dilated, may be of similar size as the shrunken external iliac vein (left color ow image). Retrograde ow in the saphe­nofemoral junction (right image, V.S.M) indicates outow obstruction of the pelvic veins; the course of the abdominal wall collaterals can be fol­lowed using color duplex ultrasound. The Doppler waveform (right) also shows retrograde ow toward the transducer in the great saphenous vein

(V.I.I=internal iliac vein). The Doppler waveform shows high ow velocity of 170cm/s in the external iliac vein and loss of respiratory phasicity
. Fig. 3.50 (Atlas) Criteria for estimating thrombus age.
The major signs of acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the legs are marked dilatation of the vein and good delineation of the homoge­neous, often hypoechoic, thrombosed venous lumen from perivascular connective tissue. The two images obtained in the same patient show acute DVT with the venous lumen dilated to well over twice that of the accompanying artery in the right leg (right image) and an old throm­bosis of the common femoral vein already partially recanalized in the area of the femoral bifurcation at the same level on the left (V.F.C, ow displayed in blue).

. Fig. 3.51 (Atlas) Older femoral vein thrombosis.
Older thrombosis is associated with shrinkage of the lumen (relative to the corresponding artery). The image on the left shows the thrombotically occluded supercial femoral vein (V) posterior to the supercial femoral artery (A.F.S, red). Demarcation is much poorer than in acute thrombosis. The image obtained with application of pressure (middle section) shows incompressibility of the vein depicted posterior to the artery. The longitudinal image (right section) of the occluded supercial femoral vein (V.F.S) shows absence of ow in the vein posterior to the artery shortly before receiv­ing the deep femoral vein (V.P.F). The deep femoral vein is recanalized with ow toward the transducer coded in red. However, marginal hypoechoic thrombosis still persists along the patent venous lumen
. Fig. 3.52 (Atlas) Calf vein thrombosis.
With a satisfactory acoustic window, fresh venous thrombosis below the knee is easily identied as a hypoechoic tubular structure within the soft tissue in the typical anatomic location of the vein. The lumen is wider than that of the corresponding artery. The bular artery and vein course along the medial aspect of the bula. Compression ultrasound and color duplex imaging are highly accurate in dierentiating between patent and thrombotic segments. The image on the right shows one patent vein and one thrombosed vein, and the left image shows thrombosis of both bular veins, while both adjacent posterior tibial veins are patent (blue-coded ow)
. Fig. 3.53 (Atlas) Older calf vein thrombosis.
Following acute thrombosis, recanalization may set in early as indicated in the example by partial recanalization (blue) of the left posterior tibial vein (left section; diameter of the vein indicated by calipers). On the other hand, recanalization may occur late or not at all, which is indicated by a shrunken lumen without ow signals, shown here for the bular vein (V.FIB) on longitudinal and transverse views (middle and right sections). Older thrombosis is characterized by more echogenic thrombus and shrinkage of the venous lumen, which is more dicult to distinguish from surrounding muscle and fatty connective tissue. The examples illustrate the diculties encountered in diagnosing older thrombosis both in par­tial recanalization and in completely occluded postthrombotic veins with shrunken lumina

. Fig. 3.54a–c (Atlas) Recurrent thrombosis after recanalization.
a The posterior tibial vein to the right of the artery (A, red) is markedly dilated (6.1mm) and shows no ow, suggesting acute thrombosis. The vein to the left exhibits ow coded in blue with a surrounding hypoechoic margin corresponding to wall thickening as a sign of recanalized thrombo­sis. Compression ultrasound (right) shows only little compressibility of the thrombosed vein. No venous ow signals are depicted to the left of the artery during compression. However, the vein is not fully compressed. There is a hypoechoic area in the connective tissue corresponding to the postthrombotically thickened walls. The vein is surrounded by hyperechoic connective tissue of the deep crural fascia, and the tibia is depicted farther away from the transducer.
b,c Recurrent calf vein thrombosis after partial recanalization. b Partial recanalization and recurrent thrombosis in the paired veins coursing to the right and left of the artery of the same name (A). Ultrasound
images obtained without compression (left) and with compression (right) show residual thrombosis with partial recanalization in the bular vein (indicated by “V.F>”) to the left of the artery, close to the bula, while there is acute recurrent thrombosis of the bular vein (V) to the right of the artery. Residual thrombosis results in poor demarcation of the lumen from the wall and incomplete compressibility (with reduction of the lumen from 3.7 to 2.7mm in the compression image (calipers). The bular vein with acute thrombosis (V) shows some deformability although it is occluded and the lumen is widened by the thrombus (F.C.P=deep crural fascia). c Color duplex imaging shows blood ow (blue) lling approx. half the lumen of the older, partially recanalized bular vein (“V>”), while there is no ow in the other, markedly dilated and acutely thrombosed bular vein (indicated by “V” in the transverse image (left) and “V.FIV” in the longi­tudinal image (right). Aliasing in the artery is due to the low PRF chosen to depict slow venous ow (. Fig.3.54b, c adapted from Schäberle 2014)
. Fig. 3.55a, b (Atlas) Diagnosis of calf vein thrombosis– ultrasound versus venography.
a Isolated calf vein thrombosis of a single vein group may be overlooked or misinterpreted on venography. Moreover, small lling defects may be dicult to assign to a muscle vein or a major vein. B-mode ultrasound identies acute thrombosis of a calf vein as a hypoechoic tubular structure along the artery of the same name, which can serve as a landmark. Color duplex imaging corroborates the diagnosis by the failure to demonstrate ow when performed with a low PRF.When only little residual ow is present, augmentation by manual compression distal to the transducer may be necessary to obtain a ow signal. The left image shows a patent posterior tibial vein (V) with blue-coded ow to the right of the red artery (A), while the second vein (V) to the left of the artery is thrombosed. The marked dilatation of the vein (to more than twice the width of the arterial lumen) and the low-level echo of the thrombus suggest acute thrombosis. The longitudinal image (right) shows the bular vein to be thrombosed as well. The lumen is much wider than that of the corresponding artery (A) with ow depicted in red. The thrombosed vein is hypoechoic and homogeneous, clearly demarcating it from the surrounding soft tissue. b Venogram: Filling defect in the posterior tibial vein. The bular vein is not depicted

. Fig. 3.56a–c (Atlas) Isolated bular vein thrombosis– venography.
Venography is limited in the evaluation of the bular veins. A lling defect in this vein may be due to a technical limitation or thrombosis. a Sonographic examination identies one thrombosed and one patent bular vein. The transverse view (left section) depicts round, tubular structures to the left and right of the artery and the bula (FIB) to the left. The veins are indicated by calipers: the thrombosed vein (right) is markedly dilated compared with the patent bular vein (7.7mm versus 3.5mm). The image obtained while compression is being applied (middle section) no longer shows the bular vein to the left of the artery (A), indicating complete compressibility. The vein to the right shows only little compressibility (diameter reduced from 7.7 to 5.8mm), consistent with acute thrombus. The color duplex image (right section) depicts the patent vein in blue to the left of the artery (red), the thrombosed vein (V ) to the right (marked with calipers). The thrombosed vein is hypoechoic, markedly dilated, and shows no ow. b Longitudinal duplex image of the markedly dilated vein with the Doppler waveform conrming absence of blood ow. The clot immobilizes a valve in the center of the image. c The venogram fails to depict the bular veins. Based on the duplex sonographic demonstration of one patent and one thrombosed bular branch, this example nicely illustrates that absence of contrast lling may be due to thrombosis or technical limitations of the method

a Free-oating thrombus in the supercial femoral vein (V.FEM.S); transverse view on the left and longitudinal view on the right. A circular ow signal around a thrombus in a color ow image is diagnostic of free-oating thrombus (TH) and enables determination of the extent of the oat­ing component. The slow ow around the oating tail proximal to the occlusion may be dicult to depict despite adequate instrument settings (high gain, low PRF). The problem may be overcome by having the patient perform a Valsalva maneuver to augment ow. Instrument adjustment to slow venous ow leads to aliasing in the supercial femoral artery (A, anterior to the vein). Collaterals with ow in blue (KOL) are depicted anterolaterally and the deep femoral vein (V.P.F) posteriorly. b Venogram: The femoral vein is thrombosed; a second plane is necessary to estimate the length of the oating tail
