This book is designed to provide easy to reference, up to date protocols and procedures for vascular ultrasound. The text also delineates how to interpret imaging findings and implement results for optimal patient care outcomes. Chapters thoroughly cover an array of topics focused on the interpretation of vascular ultrasound, including transcranial Doppler, hemodialysis fistula mapping, and pelvic venous duplex, as well as the protocols and standards of the Massachusetts General Hospital Vascular Lab. Expert authors provide step by step detail on how to perform vascular lab examinations correctly, how to clinically interpret results, and how to implement findings into clinical practice. There is additionally coverage of how to develop and receive accreditation for a new vascular laboratory. 

This is an ideal guide for vascular surgeons, general surgeons, primary care physicians, vascular technologists, interventional radiologists, cardiologists, vascular medicinespecialists, anesthesiologist and any practitioners who practice vascular ultrasound.  


lt;p>Dr Anahita Dua is an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School and a vascular surgeon at the Massachusetts General Hospital. She is the director of the vascular lab, co-director of the peripheral artery disease center, associate director of the wound care program, and director of the lymphedema center. She specializes in advanced endovascular and open techniques for the care of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), diabetic limb disease, aortic disease, carotid disease, thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS), and venous disease. She completed her vascular surgery fellowship at Stanford Hospital, General Surgery residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin and medical school in the United Kingdom. She also has completed a masters degree in trauma sciences, an MBA in Healthcare Management, a certificate in health economics and outcomes research as well as a certificate in drug and device development from MIT. She is nationally certified in advanced wound care and management. Dr. Dua has published over 127 peer reviewed papers and has edited four vascular surgery medical textbooks. She serves on multiple national vascular surgery committees through the Society for Vascular Surgery and other vascular organizations. She is also the director of the Clinical Approach to Vascular Ultrasound Harvard Course.


Scott Manchester (BS, MS, RVT) is registered vascular technologist, with the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS). He is the Technical and Clinical Director of the vascular lab at Massachusetts General Hospital. He has completed his Associate and Bachelor's degree in Science from the University of Massachusetts, a Master's degree in Science and Leadership with a concentration of Health Management from the Northeastern University and received specialized training at the Muscular Therapy Institute in Cambridge and at Boston University. Scott has published most recently and serves on various committees within his organization. He considers himself as a detail-oriented, focused clinical professional expanding over more than 20 years in performing ultrasound procedures, and clinical applications. His proven track record of collaborating with physicians and other hospital staff in delivering high-quality ultrasound guided practices, driving growth, and generating revenue and fully adhering to facility, state, federal, IAC accreditation and Joint Commission standards either meet or exceed expectation.


Drena K. Root, BS, RVT has over 30 years of experience in the vascular ultrasound field, including serving as Technical Director for several Boston hospitals.
