Targeted duplex ultrasound in a one-stop dialysis vascular access assessment clinic (2011)
Journal Article
Smith, G. E., Samuel, N., Khan, J., Johnson, B. F., & Chetter, I. C. (2011). Targeted duplex ultrasound in a one-stop dialysis vascular access assessment clinic. Annals of vascular surgery, 25(8), 1099-1103. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avsg.2011.02.043

BackgroundMany duplex detectable factors have been shown to correlate with upper limb arteriovenous fistula (AVF) outcomes, and many practitioners now request preoperative duplex vessel mapping routinely before AVF surgery. We report outcomes from a... Read More about Targeted duplex ultrasound in a one-stop dialysis vascular access assessment clinic.

Carotid body tumour (CBT) is a rare neoplasm that usually presents as an asymptomatic slow-growing neck mass at the carotid bifurcation. Due to these benign attributes, CBTs often go undiagnosed for a few years before a lateral neck mass becomes clin... Read More about Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours.
