Abstract:
Recent developments in the field of biomedical imaging have facilitated the use of various imaging techniques as adjunctive tools in microsurgical lower limb reconstructions. Frequently-used imaging modalities in reconstructive microsurgery are colour-Doppler ultrasound and computed tomography angiography. Here, we present basic principles of the above applied techniques and analyze the surgical rationale of integrating imaging techniques in lower limb reconstruction.
