Upper Limb Doppler

Upper limb Doppler is performed using high-resolution ultrasound imaging on the Mindray Nuewa i9 system, enabling detailed evaluation of arterial and venous blood flow in the upper extremities.

Upper limb Doppler is commonly advised in following conditions:

• Pain, swelling or heaviness in upper limb

• Suspected arterial insufficiency

• Evaluation of venous thrombosis

• Assessment of varicose veins (upper limb)

• Coldness or color change in fingers

• Follow-up of vascular conditions

🔍 What Upper Limb Doppler Evaluate

• Arteries – patency, stenosis or occlusion

• Veins – thrombosis or flow abnormalities

• Blood flow pattern – velocity and waveform changes

• Vascular integrity – narrowing or obstruction

• Collateral circulation – in chronic conditions
