The new supervisor of our Vascular Lab asked me why we scan the 
entire leg in a Venous Duplex scan when evaluating for DVT when other 
facilities in the area scan only to the knee and stop.  The lab follows 
ICAVL, SCU and our Medical Directors guidelines/protocols, however, 
she is looking at the possible time saved and training spent.  Any 
explainations out there? I have never heard of scanning only to the 
knee, but I am new to Vascular since 2009. Is there something I am 
missing???  Thanks in advance for your explainations...
