    Vascular Lab

    The Vascular Lab provides diagnostic ultrasound testing for blockage, narrowing and other disorders of the arteries and veins in the neck, arms, legs and abdomen. These narrowed or blocked vessels can be the cause of strokes, leg pain, swelling or ulcers of the legs. An enlargement (aneurysm) of the abdominal aorta can be fatal if it ruptures.

    Our doctors are equipped with the information to treat the cause of symptoms and frequently prevent the more serious consequences of vascular disorders. These tests are noninvasive and cause little, if any discomfort. Our Vascular Lab will be accredited in 2010 to ensure high-quality Vascular Lab results.

    Common procedures include:

    • Abdominal aortic ultrasound
    • Carotid artery ultrasound
    • Peripheral arterial evaluation
    • Peripheral venous evaluation
