Venous Duplex Ultrasound of the Lower Extremities is a non-invasive ultrasound method used to assess the functional and anatomical status of the vascular system.

This examination combines B-mode imaging with Doppler mode, allowing physicians to evaluate blood flow velocity, direction, and structural changes in real time.

In the case of the abdominal region, the scan evaluates major blood vessels such as the aorta and its primary branches. For the lower limbs, it assesses both the arterial and venous systems. This information is particularly important for managing both chronic and acute conditions and for preventing complications.

The accuracy and high diagnostic capability of this examination enable physicians to evaluate vascular function, detect pathological processes at an early stage, and develop appropriate treatment strategies.

Venous Duplex Ultrasound of the Lower Extremities is performed in patients who are at risk of peripheral arterial disease, venous thrombosis, or aneurysms. As such, it represents an essential part of modern vascular diagnostics, supporting clinical decision-making and the effective management of a patient’s health.
