How can a Vascular scan help me?

A vascular scan can help by showing how well blood is flowing through your veins and arteries. It can detect blood clots such as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), find blockages or narrowing in blood vessels, and check for swelling, inflammation, or poor circulation. This test helps your doctor understand the cause of pain, swelling, or colour changes in your legs or arms, allowing for the right treatment and care.

Vascular Scans

What area can a Vascular Scan assess?

Frequently Asked Questions

A vascular or DVT ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging test that uses sound waves to assess blood flow in your veins. It helps detect Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), blood clots, and other vascular issues.

You should book a scan if you experience symptoms such as:

  • Swelling in one arm or leg
  • Pain or tenderness in a limb
  • Skin discoloration or warmth

These can be signs of a possible blood clot or other vascular problems.

The DVT ultrasound provides a detailed assessment for:

  • Presence and location of venous blood clots
  • Arm or leg swelling and pain
  • Signs of inflammation or infection
  • Potential lumps, masses, or tumours
  • Indicators of cancer or other vascular abnormalities

All scans are carried out by experienced specialist sonographers who provide a thorough and personalised assessment of your vascular health.

You’ll receive same-day results, including a digital report and high-resolution images. These can be shared with your healthcare provider for further consultation if needed.

No referral is required. You can book directly for your private DVT ultrasound appointment.

Your appointment will include a one-to-one consultation with a specialist sonographer. The scan is non-invasive and painless, and your sonographer will ensure all your concerns are addressed.
