The challenge of venous Doppler in clinical practice
The exam is ordered every day, but hands-on training is rare
Lower limb venous Doppler is one of the most frequently ordered exams in vascular practice. Even so, hands-on training during medical education is limited, and the same difficulties keep coming up:
- Difficulty standardizing the exam protocol
- Uncertainty assessing venous reflux
- Difficulty mapping the superficial and deep systems
- Slow, unproductive exams
- Doubts interpreting ultrasound findings
Why the Hands-On solves this
In practice, you only master the exam by performing many exams under experienced supervision.
- Supervised practice from the first exam to the last
- Real-time technical correction
- Clinical discussion of every case
- Extremely small classes
The goal is for you to leave the course confident to apply the exam in your professional practice.
What you will learn

All content is applied directly to clinical practice, from the exam to the report.
- Complete lower limb venous Doppler protocol

Every case discussed with Dr. Fanilda
You will have direct contact with patients with different clinical conditions, with the machine in your hand.
This lets you understand not only how to perform the exam, but how to interpret the findings correctly.
Common mistakes in venous Doppler
Even experienced physicians make technical mistakes during the exam. Among the most common:
Incomplete assessment of the deep system
Without a structured protocol, the exam can miss thromboses and obstructions.
Lack of standardization
Without a clear sequence, the exam becomes slow and less efficient.
Difficulty assessing reflux
Reflux interpretation is the biggest source of doubt in venous Doppler.
Inaccurate saphenous mapping
Inadequate mapping compromises treatment decisions.
Lack of confidence in interpretation
Without proper hands-on training, the uncertainty remains.
This Hands-On was designed precisely to correct these points in practice.
