Reasons you might need a Doppler study 🩺
1. To check blood flow in arteries and veins
It helps doctors see if blood is moving properly through vessels in areas like the legs, neck, arms, or abdomen.
2. To detect blood clots
It can identify clots in veins, such as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), which can cause pain or swelling in the legs.
3. To check for blocked or narrowed arteries
It helps diagnose conditions like poor circulation or atherosclerosis (plaque buildup in arteries).
4. If you have leg pain or swelling
Doctors often use it when someone has unexplained leg pain, cramps, swelling, or numbness.
