Colour Doppler
At Sri Sai Sagar Clinics, we provide advanced Colour Doppler ultrasound services, a vital non-invasive diagnostic tool used to assess blood flow and evaluate vascular conditions. This imaging technique enhances traditional Doppler ultrasound by using color to visualize blood flow dynamics, making it easier to identify abnormalities.
What is Colour Doppler?
Colour Doppler ultrasound utilizes high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of blood flow within blood vessels and the heart. By assigning different colors to the direction of blood flow, this technique allows for detailed assessment of vascular structures and circulation.
Indications for Colour Doppler:
We recommend Colour Doppler for various clinical reasons, including evaluating arterial and venous blood flow, detecting blood clots, assessing the patency of blood vessels, and diagnosing conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), arterial blockages, and varicose veins. It is also instrumental in assessing cardiac function and heart valve conditions.
Procedure:
The Colour Doppler examination is a safe, painless procedure that typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. Patients lie comfortably as a transducer covered in gel is placed on the area of interest, allowing for the capture of blood flow images.
Benefits of Colour Doppler:
This non-invasive technique provides immediate results, enabling timely diagnosis and management of vascular conditions. It poses no risk of radiation exposure and is widely used for both adult and pediatric patients.
