[Our experience with functional ascending cinephlebography].
Over the last three years, ascending, functional cine-phlebography has been used on 43 patients with different lesions of the venous system. The patient is placed in the decubitus dorsal position, on a radiological table inclined at 70 degrees. The opaque liquid is injected into the dorsal vein of the foot. Its movement is helped by the flexing of the muscles of the leg, and is followed on a screen. This method makes it possible to follow the morphological and functional aspects of the veins of the lower limbs. In this way it is possible to assess valvular function, the location of the perforating veins and their competence, the limits of a thrombosis, and the therapeutic results. This examination, which is painless and harmless, makes it possible to improve the precision of the diagnosis in patients with different vein lesions, and gives most valuable information on the functioning of the venous system of the lower limbs.
