Book your Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Venous at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, which is an NABL & NABH-accredited diagnostic centre, providing high-end Radiology & Pathology services. Advanced Colour Doppler ultrasound uses state-of-the-art technology to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the veins in one upper limb to assess the course of blood flow, determine the presence of a blood clot, venous obstruction, and other vascular conditions with a high level of accuracy.

Venous disorders are diagnosed in an early stage with the use of Doppler technology, which displays the inherent flow of blood and helps your doctor to choose the most suitable treatment, without any unnecessary invasive procedure.

About Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Venous

The Colour Doppler - Upper Limb Venous scan is a non-invasive test using ultrasound to check the condition of the deep and superficial veins of one arm. It assists in evaluating venous blood flow, for the detection of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), the detection of venous obstruction, and the evaluation of vein function.

Venous Doppler studies in Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy are carried out on high-end ultrasound equipment, offering detailed information that allows for precise diagnosis and optimal treatment planning for vascular conditions.

What is a Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Venous Scan?

This test uses a combination of normal ultrasound imaging and Colour Doppler, which not only allows the visualization of veins but also measures the direction and speed of blood flow.

It enables radiologists to detect blood clots, to determine whether veins are open or closed, to determine the function of the venous valve, and to be able to determine abnormalities in circulation to the upper limb. There is no radiation or contrast dye involved, and it is painless and not an invasive procedure.

Common Reasons for a Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Venous Scan

• Swelling of one arm
• Arm pain or tenderness
• Suspected Upper Limb Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
• Evaluation of venous obstruction
• Assessment of central venous catheter-related complications
• Follow-up after treatment for venous thrombosis
• Evaluation before dialysis access procedures
• Unexplained discoloration of the arm or hand
• Monitoring venous circulation after surgery
• Assessment of venous compression syndromes

Conditions Evaluated

Upper Limb Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

Detects blood clots within the deep veins of the arm, allowing early treatment to reduce the risk of complications.

Venous Obstruction

Identifies narrowing or blockage of veins that may impair normal blood circulation.

Venous Insufficiency

Evaluates abnormal venous blood flow and valve dysfunction contributing to swelling and discomfort.

Catheter-Related Venous Thrombosis

Assesses clot formation associated with central venous catheters, pacemaker leads, or dialysis access.

Venous Compression

Evaluates conditions such as thoracic outlet syndrome that may compress veins and restrict blood flow.

Who Should Consider this Scan?

Your doctor may recommend a Colour Doppler – Upper Limb Venous scan if you:

• Have swelling, pain, or heaviness in one arm
• Are suspected of having an upper limb blood clot
• Have a central venous catheter or dialysis access
• Experience unexplained discoloration of the hand or arm
• Require evaluation before or after vascular procedures
• Have a history of venous thrombosis or clotting disorders
• Need assessment following upper limb surgery or trauma
