Doppler ultrasound of limb arteries

Doppler ultrasound of limb arteries is a non-invasive examination that uses ultrasound to assess blood flow in the arteries. The patient lies or sits in a comfortable position, the doctor applies gel to the examined area, and a probe monitors the blood flow. The procedure takes 30 minutes and is painless.

It helps detect narrowing or blockages in the arteries, diagnose peripheral arterial disease, evaluate blood flow after surgery, or monitor vascular health.
