Abstract
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) which causes varicose veins and venous ulcers, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the general population. The last several years have witnessed many revolutionary developments in the realms of minimally invasive techniques (both thermal and non-thermal) to treat CVI. Moreover, multiple newer societal recommendations have been published over the past one year on the basis of the current evidence. In this article, we will briefly summarise the imaging for varicose veins and review the existing evidence in literature as well as the current guidelines and recommendations for the management of varicose veins, especially focusing on the various superficial ablation technologies.
