Understanding Doppler Ultrasound
Doppler Ultrasound is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that measures and visualizes blood flow through arteries and veins. By analyzing the frequency shifts in sound waves as they bounce off moving blood cells, Doppler Ultrasound provides critical information about the speed and direction of blood flow, helping to identify abnormalities or blockages in the vascular system.

What to Expect During Your Doppler Ultrasound
Preparation:
Generally, no special preparation is required for a Doppler Ultrasound. However, you may be asked to wear comfortable clothing and avoid certain activities before the test. Specific instructions will be provided based on the type of Doppler examination you are undergoing.
Procedure:
During the Doppler Ultrasound, a small amount of gel is applied to the skin to facilitate the transmission of sound waves. A handheld transducer is then moved over the area being examined to capture images and measure blood flow. The procedure is painless and typically takes between 30 to 60 minutes.
Post-Procedure:
After the examination, you can resume your normal activities immediately. The results of the Doppler study will be analyzed by our Radiologists, and a report will be generated for your referring Physician.
