What is a Transaction?

Doppler ultrasonography is an imaging method that examines blood flow in the body. It is used to detect blood vessel blockages, blood clots and other vascular diseases by measuring how blood flows inside the vessels and the speed at which it flows. It plays an important role in assessing vascular health and early detection of diseases.

How is it done?

In our clinic in Çiğli, Izmir, Doppler ultrasonography is performed with our advanced diagnostic systems supported by artificial intelligence. During the procedure, the patient lies in a comfortable position. The specialist technician or doctor places the ultrasound probe in the area to be examined and the device measures the flow of blood through the vessels using sound waves. These sound waves determine the speed and direction of blood flow and create images on the device screen. This makes it possible to see how the blood flows through the veins and whether there are any blockages or abnormalities. The procedure is usually painless and takes a short time.

What are the Symptoms?

Doppler ultrasonography can be performed when the following symptoms are present

• Pain or swelling in the legs: To detect vascular problems in the legs.

• Sudden dizziness or fainting: To check for problems with the blood vessels to the brain.
• Heart Palpitations To investigate irregularities in blood flow.

What are the Treatment Methods?

• Vascular Surgical Interventions: Surgical operations can be performed to open blocked vessels or repair damaged vessels.
• Medical Treatment: Medication can be used to prevent or dissolve blood clots or to support vascular health.
• Physical Therapy: Exercise programs are organized to improve vascular health and increase blood circulation.
• Artificial Intelligence Assisted Diagnosis: Doppler ultrasonography images are analyzed by artificial intelligence algorithms to help make a fast and accurate diagnosis.

Doppler ultrasonography provides doctors with detailed and reliable information to assess vascular health and plan the course of treatment.
