Abstract
The article focuses on important issues of methodology for studying venous outflow from the head and neck, emphasizing the importance of this problem for early diagnosis due to the long-term asymptomatic course of venous circulation disorders. The features of the head and neck venous circulation are presented. We outlined the difficulties in studying venous outflow in the clinic. The results of Russian and foreign studies on venous outflow assessment using various methods are presented, while attention is focused on non-invasive diagnostics using ultrasound. In addition, we present our original research data on venous outflow assessment during verticalization in patients with internal carotid arterial stenosis.

What is already known about the subject?
- The brain and neck veins do not completely copy the artery course.
- In case of venous outflow disorder, there are multiple options for blood flow redistribution, which provides long-term compensation for the pathological process.
- Non-invasive methods for studying the head and neck venous system have appeared relatively recently, since previously there were no technical capabilities to evaluate vessels with low velocity characteristics.
- A unified methodology has not been developed to date.
What might this study add?
- A simple methodology is presented with the calculation of several integrative indicators reflecting venous outflow global changes in patients with internal carotid artery stenosis.
