Tests & scans
The Vascular Laboratory performs ultrasound tests. These use sound waves to create a picture of your arteries and veins, so that we can see how your blood is flowing.
Our tests do not use radiation and will not cause you any harm.
Ultrasound tests help your doctor diagnose of a wide range of diseases and conditions, and plan your surgery.
Our tests include:
Please note that we are unable to image the vessels inside your brain or your thoracic aorta (the blood vessel running through your chest that carries blood away from the heart).
