Ultrasound of Lower Limb Arteries and Veins
Ultrasound of the arteries and veins of the lower limbs is a modern, highly informative and safe diagnostic method used to assess blood flow, vascular patency and structural abnormalities. The procedure is non-invasive, painless and suitable for both diagnostic and preventive purposes.
Our clinic uses advanced ultrasound equipment operated by experienced specialists, providing high accuracy in detecting vascular disorders even at early stages.
Why the Examination Is Performed
The examination allows a detailed evaluation of the condition of the lower limb vessels:
- identifying atherosclerotic plaques;
- detecting arterial narrowing and stenosis;
- diagnosing blood clots;
- assessing the condition of veins and venous valves;
- evaluating blood flow velocity and parameters;
- detecting dissections and other vascular abnormalities.
Indications for Lower Limb Vascular Ultrasound
- fatigue of the legs even with mild activity;
- visible venous network;
- bluish discoloration of toes;
- constant cold feet;
- frequent leg cramps;
- persistent itching without clear cause;
- pain or tingling during walking or standing;
- skin sensitivity changes;
- discoloration of the skin.
The examination is also recommended for diabetes, endocrine disorders, post-stroke recovery and vascular pathology monitoring. Women taking hormonal medications for a long period should undergo the test regularly due to a higher risk of thrombosis.
How the Examination Is Performed
The procedure is painless and requires no special preparation. The patient lies down, the doctor applies a gel and performs scanning using an ultrasound probe. The examination takes 30–45 minutes, and results are provided immediately after the procedure.
