Vascular ultrasound (dopplerography)

Doppler ultrasound of blood vessels is a non-invasive diagnostic method that allows you to assess the condition of blood vessels and the characteristics of blood flow in them. This method is based on the Doppler effect, which consists in changing the frequency of ultrasonic waves when reflected from moving objects, such as red blood cells.

 

During the procedure, a special sensor emits ultrasonic waves that are reflected from moving blood cells and return to the sensor. This allows you to obtain information about the speed and direction of blood flow, as well as the structure and patency of the vessels.

 

Doppler ultrasound can be used to examine the vessels of the head and neck, lower extremities, as well as other parts of the body.
