Deep vein thrombosis. Coloured angiograms (X-rays) of two views of a leg showing deep vein thrombosis. The thrombus (abnormal clot,white) is blocking the flow of blood (red) in the vein,causing blood to pool beneath it (lower left & right). Bone is grey. Deep vein thrombosis is most common in the legs,occurring when a thrombus forms in undamaged deep-lying veins. The restricted blood may cause pain,swelling and tissue death. The angiograms were produced by injecting a radio-opaque dye into the blood system | |
