What is a Vascular Study?
This ultrasound-based test evaluates circulation in the limbs, neck, or abdomen. It helps detect blockages, clots, or narrowing in blood vessels. No needles or incisions are involved.
This procedure helps to:
- Assess circulation in arms and legs
- Detect arterial blockages or clots
- Evaluate risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD)
- Monitor vascular conditions over time
- Guide treatment decisions for vascular disease

- Gentle pressure from probe on skin
- Real-time visualization of blood flow
