Vascular Ultrasound
A vascular ultrasound is a safe and non-invasive test that uses sound waves to create pictures of the blood flowing through your arteries and veins.
Vascular ultrasounds helps doctors see if there are any blockages (like clots or plaque buildup), or if there are problems with your blood circulation. It's commonly used to check the blood flow in your arms, legs, or neck (carotid arteries) and is a painless procedure that provides vital information about your vascular health.
