Service Providers for Duplex Study of Arteri
A Duplex Study of the arteries is a non-invasive diagnostic test that uses ultrasound and Doppler technology to assess the structure and blood flow within the arteries. This test helps diagnose conditions like atherosclerosis (plaque buildup), stenosis (narrowing), aneurysms, and peripheral artery disease (PAD). During the procedure, a gel is applied to the skin, and a transducer is moved over the area of interest, such as the neck, legs, or abdominal arteries, to capture images and measure blood flow. The test is generally painless, although some pressure may be felt. Results help guide treatment, which could include medication, lifestyle changes, or surgical options like angioplasty.
