OVERVIEW

This issue contains information on imaging protocols for branched endoprostheses for endovascular repair, blood flow volumes in patients with posterior circulation ischemic disorders, partial subclavian steal due to kinking in the artery, an incidental finding of fibromuscular dysplasia in the forearm, and the poster abstracts presented at the Society for Vascular Ultrasound annual conference.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

After reading and studying the papers used for CME in the Winter 2021 Issue of the Journal for Vascular Ultrasound, participants will be able to: 1. State the most serious complication of a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm
2. List the advantages of using a structured protocol to image the branched endoprosthesis device
3. Discuss the importance of using a correct Doppler angle
4. List the various imaging modalities used to detect lesions in the cerebral arteries
5. Explain why women were not included in the research project pertaining to cerebral blood flow volumes
6. Compare the findings of the blood flow volumes in the right and left vertebral arteries in patients with steno-occlusive disease
7. Explain subclavian steal syndrome
8. Describe the direction of blood flow in the vertebral artery in a patient with subclavian steal
9. Describe the spectral Doppler waveforms before and after exercise maneuvers
10. List the best medical treatment for fibromuscular dysplasia
11. State the pathophysiology of fibromuscular dysplasia
12. List the gold standard for diagnosing fibromuscular dysplasia
13. State the imaging modalities used to assess nutcracker phenomenon-syndrome
14. List the various causes of a spontaneous pseudoaneurysm
15. List imaging optimization techniques used to visualize webbing in patients with fibromuscular dysplasia
