Why is a Doppler Venous Both Lower Limbs performed?

This examination is commonly performed to evaluate deep vein thrombosis (DVT), superficial vein thrombosis, chronic venous insufficiency, venous reflux, varicose veins, venous obstruction, and other venous disorders affecting both lower limbs.

Which veins are examined during the test?

The examination typically evaluates the common femoral veins, femoral veins, deep femoral veins, popliteal veins, posterior tibial veins, anterior tibial veins, peroneal veins, great saphenous veins, and small saphenous veins in both legs.
