Colour Doppler
Vascular Doppler studies for arteries, veins, varicose veins and diabetic vascular complications.
What This Service Covers
Colour Doppler studies map blood flow in arteries and veins, used to evaluate varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, peripheral arterial disease and diabetic vascular complications.
The test is painless, uses no radiation and is performed by a trained sonographer or vascular specialist with the findings explained the same day.
Doppler is also used for renal, carotid and pregnancy-related vascular assessment where the treating consultant needs to see flow rather than structure alone.
