Book a Both Limb (Both Legs or Both Hands) Angiography and Venography at Molecular Diagnostics, an NABL- and NABH-certified diagnostic centre. Using IV contrast, our advanced CT Angiography and Venography (CTA & CTV) technology provides high- resolution imaging of the arterial and venous blood supplying both legs or both hands. This full-body scan is used to accurately diagnose problems with blood flow, such as venous obstruction, arterial blockages, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), vascular injuries, vascular malformations, and aneurysms.
With timely reports, proper diagnosis, and effective treatment planning, our expert radiologists make use of state-of-the-art CT (computed tomography) technology, which gives detailed angiographic and venographic images.
About Both Limb Angiography and Venography
Limb Angiography & Venography is a more advanced version of a contrast-enhanced CT Angiography and contrast-enhanced Venography of the lower (both legs) or upper (both hands) limbs. The examination offers a detailed visualization of the arteries, veins, blood vessels, and adjacent soft tissues. It aids in the evaluation of blood circulation, narrowing or blockages, blood clots, and vascular disorders of the legs and arms. At Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, cutting-edge CT angiography and venography technology offers detailed imaging of the vascular system to ensure proper diagnosis and therapy planning.
What is Limb Angiography and Venography?
Limb Angiography and Venography is an imaging exam that uses an X-ray dye injected into the vein or artery. It utilizes the CT technique to produce comprehensive images of both right and left legs, or images of both right and left hands, in order to assess the state of the vascular circulation and venous drainage on both legs (or both hands) during a single comprehensive examination.
This scan is often ordered if patients have symptoms of circulatory trouble, swelling of their limbs, an unknown circulatory problem, a vascular injury, blood clots, or if a detailed circulatory map is needed before treatment or surgical procedures are pursued.
Common Reasons for Both Limb Angiography and Venography
- Suspected peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
- Suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Pain or swelling affecting both limbs
- Evaluation of arterial or venous obstruction
- Assessment of aneurysms and vascular malformations
- Evaluation of traumatic vascular injuries
- Assessment of chronic venous insufficiency
- Pre-operative vascular mapping
- Follow-up after vascular surgery, angioplasty, or other interventions
Conditions Evaluated
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Detects narrowing or blockage of arteries and evaluates reduced blood supply to both limbs.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Helps identify blood clots within the deep venous system and evaluate their extent.
Arterial and Venous Obstruction
Assesses narrowing or blockage affecting normal arterial and venous circulation.
Aneurysms and Vascular Malformations
Evaluates abnormal arterial dilatation and congenital or acquired abnormalities of blood vessels.
Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Assesses abnormalities affecting venous drainage and circulation.
Traumatic Vascular Injuries
Evaluates damage to arteries and veins following accidents, trauma, or surgical procedures.
Post-Surgical and Post-Interventional Changes
Monitors vascular grafts, bypass procedures, stents, angioplasty, thrombectomy, and other vascular treatments.
Who Should Consider This Scan?
Your doctor may recommend this examination if you:
- Have pain, swelling, numbness, or circulation problems affecting both legs or both hands
- Have suspected arterial or venous disease
- Have suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Have weak or absent pulses
- Require detailed vascular assessment before surgery
- Need follow-up imaging after vascular treatment

Test information: Fasting : 04 hours
Reporting: Within 24 hours*
- Fasting may be required before a Both Limb Angiography and Venography (CTA & CTV) scan because intravenous contrast is administered. Follow the preparation instructions provided by your doctor or diagnostic centre.
- Drink adequate water before and after the examination, unless your doctor has advised fluid restriction, to help eliminate the contrast material from your body.
- Inform your doctor and radiology team about any history of contrast allergy, kidney disease, diabetes (especially if taking metformin), asthma, heart disease, thyroid disorders, blood clotting disorders, previous DVT, chronic venous insufficiency, or previous reactions to contrast media.
- Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant before undergoing the scan.
- Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and remove watches, bracelets, rings, anklets, compression garments, or other metallic objects from both legs or both hands before the examination.
- Inform your doctor about any history of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), arterial or venous blockage, aneurysm, angioplasty, bypass surgery, vascular stents, thrombectomy, vascular malformations, varicose veins, or previous vascular injuries involving the limbs.
- Carry previous CT Angiography, CT Venography, Arterial or Venous Doppler Ultrasound, MRI/MRA/MRV, conventional angiography or venography reports, vascular surgery records, and other relevant medical documents, if available, for comparison and accurate evaluation.
- Inform the radiology team if you have difficulty lying flat, remaining still, or maintaining the required position during the examination.
- Follow the CT technician's instructions carefully. You may be asked to hold your breath briefly during image acquisition to reduce motion and obtain clear vascular images.
- Arrive 15–20 minutes before your scheduled appointment for registration, preparation, IV cannulation, and contrast-related assessment.
