John,
Trend? Afraid so. Statistics from SVU (SVT), ICAVL, and ARDMS all indicate
more influence from cardiology.  bj

Subject: COMBINED ECHO/VASCULAR or ULTRASOUND VASCULAR


Flownetters,

After many years of working in a dedicated vascular laboratory I am now
faced with the possibility that the vascular laboratory would be combined
with the echocardiography department.
My questio to all of you is how many of you are working in dedicated
vascular laboratories and how many are in a combined services situation?
Does anyone know of any published data or trends for combined services?

I am trying to explore the precedent and the possibilities with an open
mind and objectively weigh the pros and cons but could use the experience
and expertise of those of you who have "been there".

Thank you,

John Jain
