Local Color Doppler

Local color Doppler venous imaging is a specialized ultrasound technique used to assess veins in a specific area of the body. This method employs ultrasound technology to produce real-time images of the veins, along with color-coded blood flow information.

During the procedure, a small handheld ultrasound probe is placed on the skin over the targeted area. The probe emits sound waves that reflect off the veins, creating images on a monitor. The color Doppler feature evaluates the direction and velocity of blood flow within the veins.
