Understanding and Interpreting Spectral Waveforms in the Upper and Lower Extremities, Part 2
0% Complete
Course Overview
Part 2 of this educational webinar series continues the exploration of spectral Doppler waveforms in the upper and lower extremities, building on the knowledge gained in Part 1. This session offers a deeper dive into the interpretation of complex vascular conditions, including advanced cases of arterial and venous pathology. Attendees will learn how to differentiate between various flow patterns, understand the clinical significance of abnormal waveforms, and apply this knowledge to diagnose conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), chronic arterial occlusion, and post-surgical complications. This webinar is designed for healthcare professionals looking to refine their skills in spectral Doppler ultrasound interpretation, with a focus on practical applications for improved patient outcomes.
Objectives
After completing this activity, the participant will:
Identify and recognize the vascular anatomy of the upper and lower extremities.
Understand and interpret different types of waveform patterns on spectral Doppler.
Target Audience
Physicians, sonographers, and others who perform and/or interpret ultrasound.
