Barcelona, Spain: If doctors in hospital emergency departments are trained to carry out ultrasound on patients with suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT), they can nearly halve the time the patients ...

Chaplin, J. , Akhtari, A. and Lum, W. (2025) Recurrent Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) with Negative D-Dimer in a Patient on Rivaroxaban: A Diagnostic Pitfall. Open Journal of Emergency Medicine, 13, ...

Researchers have developed a new surgical tool that uses low-frequency intravascular ultrasound to break down blood clots that cause deep vein thrombosis. The tool is the first ultrasound 'drill' that ...

Although compressibility of the venous lumen indicates no thrombus is present, noncompressibility may not indicate the reverse. Instead, it may be a sign of previous thrombosis with persistent ...

JENKINTOWN, Pa. (WPVI) -- The summer travel season is here, and with it, many long plane and car trips. Those raise the risk of DVT, deep vein thrombosis or blood clots in the legs. However, knowing ...

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot (thrombus) in a deep vein, usually in the legs. These clots require medical care right away. These clots are dangerous because they can break loose, travel ...

A team of researchers are developing the use of an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm with the aim of diagnosing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) more quickly and as effectively as traditional ...

Researchers set out to develop technology capable of localizing and imaging blood clots in deep veins. Turns out their work may not only identify blood clots, but it may also be able to treat them.

When most of us think of a serious medical emergency, we usually think of sudden events such as heart attacks, strokes or serious injuries from a car crash. But some threats develop quietly, with ...

The neural network developed in this study yielded a false-negative rate of 0.22%. Neural network analysis may allow for improved risk assessment for deep vein thrombosis, according to results ...
