A member asked:
Is it true a venous clot can be missed on sonography if the technicians chooses not to use the compressibility method in a certain area of vein?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: but unlikely. ULTRASOUND TECHNOLOGY and techniques are quite standardized and effective. Also flow dynamics may detect a clot independent of direct imaging.
