About Doppler Study
Doppler ultrasound is a special type of scan that measures the speed and direction of blood flow in your blood vessels. It helps detect blockages, clots, narrowing of vessels, and circulation problems.
Using sound waves — no radiation — Doppler study is safe, painless and highly effective for diagnosing vascular conditions. It is commonly used for carotid arteries, leg veins, renal arteries, and fetal blood flow.
Doppler Study is essential for detecting cardiovascular and vascular conditions early — enabling timely treatment and better patient outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Doppler study?
Doppler ultrasound measures blood flow speed and direction in vessels. It detects blockages, clots, and circulation problems using sound waves.
Is it safe?
Yes, completely safe. Uses sound waves with no radiation.
What conditions does it diagnose?
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), carotid artery disease, renal artery stenosis, peripheral artery disease, and fetal blood flow problems.
How long does it take?
20–45 minutes depending on the area being examined.
Does it hurt?
No, it is painless. You will feel gentle pressure from the probe.
Do I need to prepare?
