Ultrasonography, specifically Doppler ultrasonography, is a non-invasive imaging technique commonly used to diagnose deep vein thrombosis (DVT). DVT is a condition characterized by the formation of a blood clot in a deep vein, usually in the legs, which can lead to serious complications such as pulmonary embolism if the clot dislodges.
