Venous Words Simplified

Duplex ultrasonography- Combines ultrasound with a doppler commonly used today. The doppler is able to measure blood flow.

High ligation- Refers to the process of dividing the saphenous vein in the groin when the patient has saphenous insufficiency. In the United States, this procedure is being rapidly replaced with thermal ablation.

Stripping- The saphenous vein is removed by using a small wire that is passed from the groin to below the knee.

Superficial thrombophlebitis- Inflammation of a vein due to a blood clot in a vein usually located in veins near the skin surface.
