Quantitative Doppler ultrasound criteria for identifying central venous hypertension in patients with chronic venous disease
Quantitative spectral Doppler criteria-specifically, increased FV waveform frequency and decreased CFV acceleration time-are strongly associated with CVH. These objective, reproducible parameters may enhance the diagnostic value of routine venous duplex ultrasound and support earlier recognition of occult cardiovascular disease in patients evaluated for chronic venous symptoms.
