Schedule your One Limb Angiography and Venography Test at the NABL & NABH Accredited Centre Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, which provides cutting-edge facilities in Radiology and Pathology. The high-resolution imaging by CT Angiography and Venography Services (also referred to as CTA & CTV) is performed to produce a picture of the veins and arteries of one upper or lower limb with intravenous contrast. The entire imaging procedure helps the physician diagnose correctly any conditions, such as arterial occlusion, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), vascular injury, aneurysm, venous occlusion, vascular malformation, etc.
Our skilled radiologists employ the latest generation of CT imaging technology, ensuring accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning, with seamless and timely creation of angiographic and venographic images.
About One Limb Angiography and Venography
One Limb Angiography and Venography is a high-resolution computed tomography (CT) of the upper or lower limb with the injection of iodine-based contrast dyes to study the arteries and veins of one of the limbs. The scan uses a contrast dye injected into the body to get detailed images of the blood vessels and arteries, giving doctors the opportunity to make a detailed assessment of blood flow, blood vessel anatomy, and abnormalities affecting the blood flow. The exam is completed with just one upper limb (shoulder to hand) or one lower (hip to foot) limb according to the clinical indication.
In Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, the technology of CT angiography and venography is advanced, providing precise visualization of the entire vascular system for diagnosis and efficient management of diseases related to the peripheral vascular system at an early stage.
What is One Limb Angiography and Venography?
One Limb Angiography and Venography is another term used to describe IV dye imaging of blood vessels. It uses CT technology to generate detailed images of the veins and arteries of a single limb, which can assist doctors in assessing blood flow, evaluating for blood clots, recognising vascular abnormalities, and planning appropriate medical or surgical treatment.
This scan is often ordered when someone experiences pain or swelling in a limb, is thought to have a blocked or narrowed vein or artery, sustained a trauma to a vein or artery, is suspected to have a vein or artery malformation, or is about to undergo vascular surgery.
Common Reasons for One Limb Angiography and Venography
Suspected peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
Suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
Persistent limb pain or swelling
Evaluation of arterial or venous obstruction
Assessment of traumatic vascular injuries
Suspected aneurysms or vascular malformations
Pre-operative vascular mapping
Follow-up after vascular surgery or intervention
Conditions Evaluated
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Detects narrowing or blockage of arteries affecting blood supply to the limb.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Identifies blood clots within the deep veins and evaluates their extent.
Arterial and Venous Obstruction
Assesses narrowing or blockage affecting normal blood circulation.
Aneurysms and Vascular Malformations
Evaluates abnormal dilatation of arteries and congenital or acquired vascular abnormalities.
Traumatic Vascular Injuries
Assesses injuries involving arteries and veins following trauma or surgery.
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:
Experience persistent limb pain or swelling
Have suspected arterial or venous disease
Have weak or absent pulses in the affected limb
Have suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
Require vascular assessment before surgery

Test information: Fasting : 04 hours
Reporting: Within 24 hours*
Fasting may be required before a One Limb Angiography and Venography (CT Angiography + CT Venography) scan as 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, 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 any metallic objects from the limb being examined before the scan.
Inform your doctor about any history of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), varicose veins, vascular surgery, angioplasty, bypass grafts, stents, thrombectomy, aneurysms, vascular malformations, or previous injuries involving the affected limb.
Carry previous CT Angiography/Venography reports, Doppler Arterial or Venous Ultrasound studies, MRI/MRA/MRV reports, conventional angiography or venography reports, vascular surgery records, or other relevant medical records, if available, for comparison and accurate evaluation.
Inform the radiology team if you have difficulty lying flat or remaining still during the examination.
Follow the CT technician's instructions carefully. You may be asked to hold your breath briefly during image acquisition to improve image quality.
Arrive 15–20 minutes before your scheduled appointment for registration, preparation, IV cannulation, and contrast-related assessment.
One Limb Angiography and Venography (CT Angiography + CT Venography) जांच में कंट्रास्ट इंजेक्शन दिया जाता है, इसलिए डॉक्टर या डायग्नोस्टिक सेंटर द्वारा दिए गए निर्देशों के अनुसार जांच से पहले उपवास (Fasting) की आवश्यकता हो सकती है।
यदि डॉक्टर ने मना न किया हो, तो जांच से पहले और बाद में पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पिएं, जिससे कंट्रास्ट दवा शरीर से आसानी से बाहर निकल सके।
यदि आपको कंट्रास्ट एलर्जी, किडनी की बीमारी, डायबिटीज (विशेषकर Metformin का सेवन), अस्थमा, हृदय रोग, थायरॉइड की बीमारी, रक्त के थक्के बनने की समस्या या पहले कभी कंट्रास्ट इंजेक्शन से एलर्जी हुई हो, तो डॉक्टर और रेडियोलॉजी टीम को अवश्य बताएं।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं या गर्भावस्था की संभावना है, तो जांच से पहले डॉक्टर को अवश्य सूचित करें।
जांच के लिए आरामदायक कपड़े पहनें तथा घड़ी, कंगन, अंगूठी, पायल, कम्प्रेशन गारमेंट या प्रभावित हाथ/पैर के आसपास की सभी धातु की वस्तुएं हटा दें।
यदि आपको Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), वैरिकोज वेन्स, एंजियोप्लास्टी, बायपास सर्जरी, स्टेंट, Thrombectomy, एन्यूरिज्म, रक्त वाहिकाओं की विकृतियां (Vascular Malformations), रक्त वाहिकाओं की सर्जरी या पहले किसी प्रकार की चोट का इतिहास है, तो इसकी जानकारी डॉक्टर और रेडियोलॉजी टीम को दें।
यदि उपलब्ध हों, तो पिछली CT Angiography/Venography रिपोर्ट, Arterial या Venous Doppler Ultrasound, MRI/MRA/MRV रिपोर्ट, Conventional Angiography/Venography रिपोर्ट, Vascular Surgery रिकॉर्ड या अन्य संबंधित मेडिकल रिकॉर्ड साथ लेकर आएं।
यदि आपको सीधे लेटने या कुछ समय तक स्थिर रहने में कठिनाई होती है, तो इसकी जानकारी रेडियोलॉजी टीम को दें।
जांच के दौरान CT तकनीशियन के निर्देशों का पालन करें। बेहतर इमेज गुणवत्ता के लिए आपको कुछ सेकंड के लिए सांस रोकने के लिए कहा जा सकता है।
पंजीकरण, IV कैनुला लगाने तथा कंट्रास्ट प्रक्रिया की तैयारी के लिए निर्धारित समय से 15–20 मिनट पहले पहुंचें।
The patient is positioned comfortably on the CT scanner table with the affected upper or lower limb properly aligned for comprehensive vascular imaging.
An intravenous (IV) contrast injection is administered to enhance visualization of both the arterial and venous systems of the selected limb.
The CT scanner acquires high-resolution angiographic and venographic images from the shoulder to the hand or from the hip to the foot, depending on the limb being examined.
During the scan, the patient is instructed to remain completely still and may be asked to hold their breath briefly during image acquisition to minimize motion artefacts and ensure optimal image quality.
The examination helps evaluate peripheral arterial disease (PAD), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), arterial and venous obstruction, aneurysms, vascular malformations, traumatic vascular injuries, varicose veins, vascular grafts, stents, angioplasty, thrombectomy, and post-surgical or post-interventional changes.
The procedure is safe, minimally invasive, and generally completed within 20–30 minutes, including intravenous contrast administration and acquisition of both angiographic and venographic phases.
The radiologist carefully reviews the images to assess the arterial and venous anatomy, blood flow, vascular abnormalities, and any pathological findings, helping guide accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
After detailed evaluation, the final report is generally available within 04 hours.
