What is a DOPPLER ARTERIAL BOTH LOWER LIMBS?

Doppler Arterial Both Lower Limbs is a non-invasive ultrasound examination that evaluates the arteries and blood flow in both legs using Color Doppler technology. It helps diagnose peripheral arterial disease (PAD), arterial narrowing (stenosis), blockages, thrombosis, aneurysms, vascular injuries, and other conditions affecting arterial circulation.

FAQs

What is a Doppler Arterial Both Lower Limbs examination?

Doppler Arterial Both Lower Limbs is a non-invasive ultrasound examination that evaluates the arteries and blood flow in both legs using high-resolution ultrasound and Color Doppler imaging.

Why is a Doppler Arterial Both Lower Limbs performed?

This examination is commonly performed to evaluate peripheral arterial disease (PAD), arterial narrowing (stenosis), arterial blockage (occlusion), arterial thrombosis, arterial embolism, aneurysms, vascular injury, diabetic vascular disease, and other disorders affecting blood flow in both legs.

Which arteries are examined during the test?

The examination typically evaluates the common femoral arteries, superficial femoral arteries, deep femoral arteries, popliteal arteries, anterior tibial arteries, posterior tibial arteries, and peroneal arteries in both legs.

Can this examination detect blocked or narrowed arteries?

Yes. Doppler ultrasound can accurately identify arterial narrowing, complete blockage, reduced blood flow, and other abnormalities affecting circulation in one or both legs.

Can this examination detect blood clots in the arteries?

Yes. It can help identify arterial thrombosis (blood clots) and arterial embolism, which may reduce or completely block blood flow to the legs.
