[Improvement in noninvasive diagnosis of the greater and lesser saphenous vein insufficiency with duplex sonography].
When compared with the phlebogram, the duplex examination proves to be a suitable procedure for diagnosing the incompetence of the junction of the long saphenous vein and of the short saphenous vein. The sensitivity and the specificity of the duplex at the junction of the long saphenous vein amounts to 0.96 and 0.75 respectively and at the junction of the short saphenous vein they are 0.90 and 0.67 respectively.
