Vascular medicine is a rapidly advancing discipline that is concerned with the study of the the blood vessels and their diseases. It encompasses the evaluation and treatment of the following disease states:
- Arterial disease, such as carotid, renal, mesenteric and other peripheral (limb) arterial abnormalities, including acute and chronic syndromes as well as long-term complications.
- Diseases of the veins, such as varicose veins, thrombophlebitis, venous thromboembolic disease (DVT and PE) and its long-term sequelae.
- Diseases of the lymphatics, such as lymphedema.
- Associated medical disorders, such as hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, diabetes.
- Nonatherosclerotic vascular disease, such as vasculitidis, thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease), fibromuscular dysplasia, pernio, atheromatous embolization, HIV and other vasculopathies.
- The appropriate use of noninvasive and invasive assessment and management of these problems
