18
Q

T/F. Varacosities are dilated, tortuous superficial veins

A

true

19

retrograde flow following compressions

A

radiating pain in the posterior aspect of the thigh

35
Q

Color doppler is used to aid in venous ultrasound suspected CVI by showing what

A

respiratory phasicity, augmentations with maneuvers, flow direction, flow in small channels, retrograde flow

37
Q
