AB Duplex  ultrasound  examination  of  the  peripheral  arterial  and  venous  systems  has  been  refined  to  the  point  where  it  has  become  the  initial  modality  of  choice  for  vascular  diagnosis.  Technical  advances  have  improved  diagnostic  accuracy  such  that  treatment  decisions  previously  based  on  angiographic  studies  can  now  be  based  solely  on  noninvasive  studies.  This  is  most  evident  in  the  noninvasive  diagnosis  of  deep  venous  thrombosis  (DVT),1  and  is  becoming  more  prevalent  in  the  management  of  carotid  occlusive  disease  and  atherosclerotic  peripheral  vascular  disease.
