Ultrasound apply in:

Anesthesiology

In anesthesiology, ultrasound is commonly used to guide the placement of needles when placing local anaesthetic solutions near nerves. It is also used for vascular access such as central venous cannulation and difficult arterial cannulation. Transcranial Doppler is frequently used by neuro-anesthesiologists for obtaining information about flow-velocity in the basal cerebral vessels.

Angiology (vascular)

Further information: Doppler ultrasonography and Intravascular ultrasound

In angiology or vascular medicine, duplex ultrasound (B Mode imaging combined with Doppler flow measurement) is used to diagnose arterial and venous disease. This is particularly important in neurology, where carotid ultrasound is used for assessing blood flow and stenoses in the carotid arteries, and transcranial Doppler is used for imaging flow in the intracerebral arteries.

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) uses a specially designed catheter with a miniaturized ultrasound probe attached to its distal end, which is then threaded inside a blood vessel. The proximal end of the catheter is attached to computerized ultrasound equipment and allows the application of ultrasound technology, such as piezoelectric transducer or CMUT, to visualize the endothelium (inner wall) of blood vessels in living individuals.

In the case of the common and potentially, serious problem of blood clots in the deep veins of the leg, ultrasound plays a key diagnostic role, while ultrasonography of chronic venous insufficiency of the legs focuses on more superficial veins to assist with planning of suitable interventions to relieve symptoms or improve cosmetics.
