OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate a new W-Lan-supported ultrasound mobile technology for the diagnosis of vascular peripheral thrombosis. MATERIAL and METHODS: Fifty patients were examined by an experienced reference sonographer using high-end technology and a W-Lan supported device (VScan Air) to evaluate its diagnostic capabilities for peripheral thrombosis. RESULTS: Fifty patients were examined (age, 25-88 years; male, n27, female n=23). Thromboses were diagnosed in the neck (n=1), upper leg (n=7), lower leg (n=49), and muscle veins (n=25). VScan Air technique also allows the diagnosis of circumscribed deep vein thrombosis with a sufficient diagnostic certainty. Moreover, for superficial thrombi that can be well-delineated, a maximum image quality is possible compared to high-end technology. CONCLUSION: The mobile VScan technology opens up new possibilities for near-patient and location-independent imaging in cases of deep vein thrombosis.
