Accurate Detection of Deep Vein Thrombosis

A Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) ultrasound scan is a specialized imaging procedure used to detect the presence of blood clots in the deep veins, typically in the legs. This non-invasive test employs high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the veins, helping healthcare providers diagnose DVT and assess the risk of complications.

  • Preparation: No special preparation is required. Wear comfortable clothing and avoid applying lotions or oils to your skin prior to the scan.
  • Procedure: You will lie on your back or side on an examination table. A gel will be applied to the skin over the area being examined to enhance sound wave transmission. A small handheld device called a transducer will be moved over the area to capture real-time images of the veins in your legs.
  • Duration: The procedure typically takes about 20 minutes.
  • Post-Scan: There are no side effects, and you can resume your normal activities immediately after the scan.

A DVT ultrasound scan is commonly performed to:

  • Detect the presence of blood clots in the deep veins of the legs
  • Assess the size and extent of a clot
  • Monitor the effectiveness of ongoing treatment for DVT
  • Evaluate symptoms such as swelling, pain, or discoloration in the legs
  • Safe and Non-Invasive: This procedure does not involve ionizing radiation, making it a safe option for all patients.
  • Real-Time Imaging: Provides immediate visualization of blood flow and clot presence.
  • Quick Results: Images can be reviewed shortly after the scan, facilitating prompt diagnosis and treatment.
