Vascular Ultrasound

“At Wollondilly Radiology, we do care about our patients needs, through expert services, advanced technology, and genuine compassion.”

What is Ultrasound imaging!

Ultrasound is a safe, painless imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time pictures of the inside of your body. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, ultrasound does not use radiation, making it a trusted option for patients of all ages, including during pregnancy.

During an ultrasound exam, a trained technologist gently moves a small handheld device called a transducer over the area being examined. The transducer sends sound waves into the body and receives the echoes that bounce back, which are then turned into detailed images on a screen. These images help healthcare providers view organs, tissues, and blood flow to assist with diagnosis and treatment planning.

Most ultrasound exams are quick and comfortable, and results are often available promptly. Our goal is to provide high-quality imaging in a calm, patient-focused environment, helping your care team get the information they need to support your health.

Your circulatory system is the highway of your body. When blood flow is restricted or irregular, it can lead to serious health concerns. Our Vascular Ultrasound services use advanced Doppler technology to visualize your veins and arteries in real-time, allowing our specialists to monitor blood flow and identify blockages without a single incision.

What is Vascular Ultrasound?

Unlike standard imaging, vascular ultrasound focuses specifically on the circulatory system. By using high-frequency sound waves, we can measure the speed and direction of blood flow. This is crucial for detecting blood clots, narrowing of the vessels (stenosis), and structural abnormalities.

We examine 

DVT- legs and arms
Leg arteries
Aorta for AAA
Arm arteries
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI)
Abdominal Doppler
Varicose veins
Carotid arteries
Mesenteric arterial Doppler
Vertebral arteries
Temporal arteries
Renal artery Doppler

Why Doppler Imaging

Zero Radiation
Completely safe for repeated monitoring and for patients who cannot undergo X-ray or CT scans.
Functional Data
While a standard scan shows the structure of a vessel, Doppler shows the function—exactly how much blood is moving through.
Pain-Free
The procedure is non-invasive, requiring only a topical gel and a handheld probe.
