A Doppler ultrasound is a special imaging test that evaluates blood flow in arteries and veins. It helps detect blockages, blood clots, and circulation issues.
Who Needs a Doppler Ultrasound?
Your doctor may recommend this test if you have:
✅ Varicose veins or deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
✅ Peripheral artery disease (PAD)
✅ High blood pressure in pregnancy (Preeclampsia screening)
✅ Carotid artery blockages that may lead to stroke
How Does It Work?
During the test, a handheld probe is moved over the area being examined, and sound waves are used to track blood movement. The procedure is painless and takes about 20-30 minutes.
