Understanding Vascular Ultrasound and Why It Matters
A vascular ultrasound is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that uses sound waves to examine blood flow in your arteries and veins. It can detect blockages, narrowing, or clots that may lead to serious health conditions such as stroke, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or peripheral artery disease (PAD). These conditions often develop quietly, making early detection through imaging essential. At TrueView Ultrasound in Roseville, patients can schedule diagnostic screenings that help detect vascular issues early. Even if vascular testing is not a primary service, supporting imaging like carotid scans plays a role in overall preventive care and cardiovascular awareness.
