Venous Limb Color Doppler

Venous blood flow assessment can be conducted using various imaging techniques, with ultrasound and color Doppler being prominent methods. This non-invasive procedure enables healthcare professionals to evaluate blood flow in arteries and veins, checking for abnormalities or blockages.

During the screening, a handheld ultrasound device is positioned on the skin over the target area, such as the arms, legs, or neck. The device emits sound waves that reflect off blood cells and tissues. These returning sound waves are converted into visual images and color-coded to illustrate the direction and speed of blood flow.
