4 Stars! "For clinicians who perform venous ablation, sclerotherapy using ultrasound, vein stripping, laser surgery, cyanoacrylate closure, and noninvasive methods for preventing low leg edema, this book is an essential resource.... The purpose of the book is to enhance clinical skills for those performing these procedures for venous telangiectasias and varicosities... [and] it does an excellent job of accomplishing the task.... High-quality clinical photographs illustrate the appearance of veins immediately following various procedures, and the book offers particularly clear guidance on the interpretation of ultrasound images during endovenous thermal ablation. The book pays meticulous attention to the details of performing sclerotherapy.... Personal vignettes by the authors display their expertise in evaluating patients for pre-existing risks, and steps to mitigate complications and maximize outcomes.... Even those well-versed in sclerotherapy are likely to gain new perspectives and insights from its contents. It has become my primary reference and an indispensable addition to my professional library." Review by Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice), ©Doody's Review Service, 2026.
