CT AND MRI VENOGRAPHY

The “Madyoon Method” for venous examination also incorporates other unique technologies. It is extremely important to identify the source of venous reflux, the underlying cause of venous insufficiency and varicose/spider veins. While the greater saphenous vein is responsible for the majority of your venous reflux, we don’t want to overlook patients who may have another source of reflux. These include perforator and accessory veins which, when left untreated, may cause a recurrence of those ugly veins you hate to see.

Other exams which rely on ultrasound to identify perforator and accessory veins often miss them.

The “Madyoon Method” employs CT and MRI Venography (MRV) instead. MRV can be highly accurate, easy to perform and successful in many situations where other imaging techniques yield ambiguous results. By combining CT angiography and CT venography, our researchers can now look for multiple conditions in one procedure with high-speed CT scanners.

The key to the use of this amazing new technology lies with the experience and training of those who use it. Our vast experience with Vascular CT and MR Angiography allows us to easily identify the many alternative sources of venous reflux that other exams routinely miss.
