This is the same patient as in the previous blog. Here one of the perforators of the lower third of the right leg is seen between the right posterior tibial veins (paired) and the distended great saphenous vein.
To get this video, I passed the probe along the leg from below (ankle level) upwards, sweeping in the transverse plane until the perforator was seen clearly.

Video-2: Another display of the same perforator:
The transverse axis of the great saphenous vein (GSV) is ideally suited to display the perforator emerging from the GSV and reaching deeper towards the posterior tibial veins (seen here as paired veins on either side of the posterior tibial artery).
Veins are blood vessels that carry blood from the tissues of your body to your heart. Your heart pumps blood to the lungs to collect oxygen.
