Vascular Studies

Vascular Studies

What Are Vascular Studies?

Vascular studies are non-invasive tests that assess blood flow in arteries and veins throughout your body. These studies help identify narrowing, blockages, or clots that can impact circulation and overall cardiovascular health.

At Potomac Cardiovascular Consultants, we use state-of-the-art Doppler ultrasound and duplex scanning to provide clear, real-time images of your blood vessels.

Why They Matter

These tests play a key role in diagnosing and managing:

  • Peripheral artery disease (PAD)
  • Carotid artery disease (stroke risk)
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
  • Varicose veins and venous insufficiency
  • Aneurysms and arterial blockages

Early detection through vascular studies allows us to prevent serious complications and develop effective treatment plans tailored to you.


What to Expect During a Vascular Test

These exams are safe, painless, and typically take 30–60 minutes. A small probe and gel are used on the skin to visualize blood flow in real-time without radiation or injections.

You can resume your regular activities immediately following the procedure.
