5.0 out of 5 stars - This is a very informative book on all things Venous ... By: Jennifer G.on February 25, 2018 (Amazon purchase) This is a very informative book on all things Venous Surgery. This explores all techniques used to treat venous insufficiency disease. I also learned new scanning protocol we now implement in all of our venous ultrasounds, Popliteal Vein Compression! After reading this chapter, I found 3 positive patients in 3 weeks! This alters traditional treatment plans of venous ablations, if PVCS is not treated 1st, this could lead to further patient problems down the road! So thankful that I ordered this book!!! Thank you Dr. Mark S. Whiteley!
