Basic and Advanced Ultrasound Concepts

In this first chapter we discuss the history of vascular disease, the importance of studying it, and its prevalence worldwide. Subsequently, we cover the professions to which this course is tailored and a chronological overview of the upcoming chapters. Prior to diving into the deep end of vascular imaging, we must first undersand the basic ultrasound concepts. Basic ultrasound concepts entail a general overview of the ultrasound system then a more focused lens on individual ultrasound system functions. Furthemore, we will learn how to set up our ultrasound environment. Once our ultrasound environment is prepared, we will review orientation, transducer ergonomics, transducer manipulation, and basic knobology. Then we proceed to learn advanced ultrasound concepts. These concepts entail image optimization via B-mode, color Doppler, and spectral Doppler, which will enable us to have full diagnostic confidence during image aquisition.

Clinical Ultrasound Concepts

A mastery of the technical and conceptual concepts regarding ultrasound imaging is not sufficient to create a competent sonographer. To truly excel, we must consider how we communicate with others. In order to answer the clinical questions, this chapter will provide a guideline regarding how communicate with both the patient and the physician.

Lower Extremity Functional Testing and Alternative Modalities

Functional arterial and venous testing is complementary to ultrasound imaging of the peripheral arterial and venous system. Together, these modalities allow us to paint a complete and vivid picture of the patient's peripheral arterial and venous pathology. This chapter covers ABI testing, segmental testing, and pulse-volume recording as well as air plethysmography testing. Furthermore, modern technology allows us to use alternative ultrasound modalities in order to improve our visualization of the peripheral venous system. This chapter also covers one of these modalities: intravascular ultrasound.
