Focused Ultrasound of the Popliteal Fossa for Detection of Symptomatic Baker's Cysts in Patients With Suspected Deep Vein Thrombosis: A Pilot Diagnostic Accuracy Study
Quality improvement study with prospective observational design. The study explores the feasibility of testing diagnostic accuracy of an emergency department-performed focused ultrasound scan of the popliteal fossa in detecting symptomatic Baker's cysts, and to evaluate the potential for such follow-ups to conserve radiological resources. Ultimately, this work aims to establish the feasibility and provide the foundational data necessary for a future definitive diagnostic accuracy study.
