Accompanied by our cutting-edge Colour Doppler ultrasound machine, our engineers can give you a detailed assessment of the arteries in the upper limbs to diagnose diminished blood flow in the arm, narrowing of arteries, blockages, and other vascular ailments.  We have skilled radiologists who conduct safe, accurate, and non-invasive vascular imaging for early diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up care.

About Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Arterial

A Colour Doppler Upper Limb Arterial Scan is a special type of ultrasound test, which is used to check the blood flow in the arteries of the arms. It is also a combination of ultrasound and Doppler technology to assess the structure of the arteries and the velocity and direction of blood flow.

Unlike standard CT scans that use radiation or contrast dye to show the body's blood flow, the scan is used to detect arterial narrowing, complete blockage, aneurysms, traumatic vascular injury, and circulatory disorders.

At Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, arterial Doppler is a high-quality procedure using advanced ultrasound equipment and optimal measures that provide precise diagnosis and reliable reporting.

What is a Colour Doppler Upper Limb Arterial Scan?

A Colour Doppler Upper Limb Arterial Scan utilises high-frequency sound waves to provide live imaging of the arteries that carry blood to the shoulders, arms, elbows, forearms, wrists, and hands. The Doppler technology assesses blood flow patterns and detects abnormalities, which can lead to a decrease in blood circulation to the upper limbs.

Common Reasons for a Colour Doppler Upper Limb Arterial Scan

  • Evaluation of reduced blood flow in the arms
  • Assessment of arterial narrowing (stenosis)
  • Detection of arterial blockage (occlusion)
  • Investigation of arm pain during activity
  • Evaluation of coldness or numbness in the hands
  • Assessment following trauma or vascular injury
  • Investigation of weak or absent pulses
  • Follow-up after arterial surgery or angioplasty
  • Evaluation of aneurysms or arterial abnormalities
  • Monitoring patients with peripheral arterial disease

Conditions Evaluated with Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Arterial

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)

Evaluates narrowing or blockage of the arteries supplying the upper limbs.

Arterial Stenosis

Detects partial narrowing that may reduce blood flow and cause arm pain or weakness.

Arterial Occlusion

Identifies complete blockage of an artery that requires prompt medical attention.

Aneurysms

Assesses abnormal widening of arteries and evaluates the risk of complications.

Traumatic Vascular Injury

Detects arterial damage following fractures, dislocations, or other injuries.

Who Should Consider a Colour Doppler Upper Limb Arterial Scan?

Your doctor may recommend this scan if you:

  • Experience pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms
  • Have cold fingers or reduced circulation in the hands
  • Notice changes in skin colour or delayed wound healing
  • Have weak or absent arm pulses
  • Have diabetes, high blood pressure, or peripheral vascular disease
  • Require follow-up after vascular surgery or angioplasty
  • Have suffered trauma involving the upper limb
