FAQs

What is MRV Limbs?

MRV Limbs (Magnetic Resonance Venography of the Limbs) is an advanced MRI examination that provides detailed images of the veins of the upper or lower limbs. It helps evaluate blood flow and detect venous abnormalities affecting the arms or legs.

Why is MRV Limbs performed?

This examination is performed to diagnose or evaluate deep vein thrombosis (DVT), venous thrombosis, venous narrowing or obstruction, chronic venous insufficiency, vascular malformations, congenital venous abnormalities, and other disorders affecting the veins of the limbs.

Who may need an MRV Limbs examination?

Your doctor may recommend this examination if you have unexplained arm or leg swelling, persistent limb pain, suspected blood clots, chronic venous disease, vascular abnormalities, or require pre-operative evaluation of the veins.

Can MRV Limbs detect deep vein thrombosis (DVT)?

Yes. MRV Limbs is highly effective in detecting blood clots within the veins of the arms or legs and helps determine their location and extent.

What is the difference between MRV Limbs and Doppler Ultrasound?

Doppler ultrasound evaluates blood flow in accessible veins using sound waves, while MRV provides detailed three-dimensional images of the veins and surrounding soft tissues, making it particularly useful for evaluating complex or extensive venous disorders.
