Vascular Ultrasound
Why is Vascular Ultrasound Requested?
Vascular ultrasound may be requested to investigate symptoms such as leg pain, swelling or changes in circulation, or to monitor known vascular conditions. Tests can help identify areas of narrowing, blockage or abnormal blood flow, and may be used alongside other clinical information and investigations requested by your practitioner.
Procedures & Patient Preparation
Before your test, you will receive clear instructions about how to prepare, what to bring and what to expect on the day so your procedure can be completed safely and efficiently.
