FAQs

What is a Doppler Arterial Right Upper Limb examination?

Doppler Arterial Right Upper Limb is a non-invasive ultrasound examination that evaluates the arteries and blood flow in the right arm using high-resolution ultrasound and Color Doppler imaging.

Why is a Doppler Arterial Right Upper Limb performed?

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

Which arteries are examined during the test?

The examination typically evaluates the subclavian artery, axillary artery, brachial artery, radial artery, and ulnar artery in the right upper limb.

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 the right arm.

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 block blood flow to the arm.
