Pencil Doppler

 

The pencil Doppler probe allow for monitoring of subcutaneous and sometimes deeper arteries and veins.  It can be valuable in both pre-operative evaluation ad post-operative monitoring.  The probe is placed on the surface of the skin with an ultrasonic gel interface.  In the operating room it can be used to locate major blood vessels and occasionally perforators to skin paddles.
