Vein mechanism assessment in under weight, normal weight, over weight and pregnant subjects for risk fector of deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

An in vivo assessment of vein mechanism on the subjects with no history of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) that is categorised into different weight categories and also the pregnant subjects with the high risk factor of DVT are presented to diagnose the early stage of DVT. DVT can give serious threat to...
