What is a DOPPLER ARTERIAL BOTH UPPER LIMBS?

Doppler Arterial Both Upper Limbs is a non-invasive Doppler ultrasound that assesses the arteries and blood flow in both arms. It helps detect peripheral arterial disease (PAD), arterial narrowing (stenosis), blockages, blood clots, aneurysms, vascular injuries, and other arterial disorders, supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

FAQs

What is a Doppler Arterial Both Upper Limbs examination?

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

Why is a Doppler Arterial Both Upper 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, and other disorders affecting blood flow in the upper limbs.

Which arteries are examined during the test?

The examination typically evaluates the subclavian arteries, axillary arteries, brachial arteries, radial arteries, and ulnar arteries in both arms.

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 arms.

Can this examination help diagnose peripheral arterial disease (PAD)?

Yes. It is commonly used to evaluate peripheral arterial disease (PAD) by assessing blood flow and identifying narrowing or blockages in the arteries supplying the arms.
