| Abstract: | The paper proposes an original procedure for diagnosing venous dysplasias of different sites. The procedure is based on the analysis of the capacities of currently used invasive and noninvasive techniques of radiation visualization. The practical aspects of conduct of routine studies, their potentialities and shortcomings are outlined. The principle of the proposed procedure is a result of a complex use of the capacities of ultrasound visualization and interventional X-ray contrast studies of the vascular system. The procedure has been successfully used in 8 patients. It is concluded that it is promising to examine venous angiodysplasias by means of direct puncture made under ultrasound guidance, followed by mass contrasting and angiography which may be supplemented by sclerosing therapy. |
