Abstract
This review summarizes a number of recent articles reconsidering the use of phlebography as the golden standard for deep venous thrombosis. Compression ultrasound and color-coded duplex doppler seem to be reasonably sensitive to provide safety in detecting lower limb thrombosis while less invasive. A clinical risk factor panel may further enhance diagnostic security.
