It helps diagnose peripheral artery disease, deep vein thrombosis, venous insufficiency, and aneurysms. Abnormal results can come from atherosclerosis, blood clots, diabetes, smoking, or injury. Family history of vascular disease may prompt earlier testing.

What do DOPPLER FOR LOWER LIMBS results mean?

Higher or positive results: A positive Doppler ultrasound means abnormal blood flow has been detected, commonly a blood clot, significant narrowing, or poor perfusion. Lower or negative results: A Doppler test for the lower limb is a non‑invasive ultrasound exam that uses sound waves to assess blood flow in leg arteries and veins. Your doctor reads the value against the reference range on your report and your symptoms, and may repeat a borderline result to confirm it.

How often should DOPPLER FOR LOWER LIMBS be repeated?

For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends, typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.
