What can Ultrasound Left Leg help detect?

It helps diagnose deep vein thrombosis, venous insufficiency, arterial narrowing, or soft tissue injury. Abnormal results can be caused by immobility, recent surgery, trauma, clotting disorders, or cancer. A family history of blood clots or vascular disease can make this test especially important.

What do Ultrasound Left Leg results mean?
