Doppler Ultrasound
Doppler ultrasounds are usually performed in response to concerns over blood circulation in any part of the body. They can be used to assess the risk of strokes and also to test quickly if there is any evidence of DVT (deep vein thrombosis). Should there be any evidence found, appropriate measures can be taken immediately to reduce the risk of further clotting.
