Description
Practical demonstrations, reading, projects, discussions, and lectures combine to solidify pulsed wave Doppler techniques in the evaluation of the carotid arteries. The carotid Doppler model is broadened to apply to other areas of the arterial vasculature which can be similarly evaluated. The anatomy and physiology of the systemic venous system is studied with particular attention to the lower and upper extremity venous vasculature. Venous duplex techniques commonly requested in the ultrasound department are presented. Prerequisite: Completion of 1st and 2nd semesters of DMS program, Co-requisite: DMS214.
