Venous Duplex
A venous duplex ultrasound is a critical diagnostic tool used to evaluate the health of the veins in your arms or legs and ensure proper blood circulation. At Advance Diagnostics Laboratories (ADL), we perform detailed scans to investigate symptoms such as leg pain, swelling, or shortness of breath, specifically looking for the presence of blood clots (thrombus) like Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). Whether you are monitoring a known condition or seeking a primary diagnosis, our experienced team provides high-quality imaging with a comprehensive radiologist report delivered within 24 hours to help guide your care.
We will perform a detailed scan of the veins in the arms or legs. Common examples for having this ultrasound scan are:
