Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy

Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy

Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy treats veins not visible on the skin's surface by using ultrasound to guide the injection of sclerosant foam into the target vein. This technique ensures precise administration. The patient typically experiences no more than a needle prick and sometimes mild burning during the procedure. Polidocanol and sodium tetradecyl sulfate are the medications commonly used for this treatment.
