Doppler Scan

A Doppler Scan is a special type of ultrasound that shows how blood flows through your blood vessels. At Star Diagnostics, we offer advanced Doppler scanning to help detect problems with blood circulation, heart, or the health of a baby during pregnancy – all without using any radiation.

What is a Doppler Scan?

A Doppler scan uses sound waves to check the speed and direction of blood flow in your veins and arteries. It helps doctors find out if your blood vessels are narrowed, blocked, or working normally.

This test is completely safe, painless, and non-invasive.

When is a Doppler Scan Needed?

Your doctor may recommend a Doppler scan to:

• Check blood flow in the legs (for varicose veins or blood clots)

• Assess heart function and major blood vessels

• Monitor blood flow in unborn babies during pregnancy

• Check for deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

• Look at the condition of arteries (such as the carotid artery in the neck)

• Assess kidney or liver circulation

Types of Doppler Scans We Offer:

• Venous Doppler – For vein health and clot detection

• Arterial Doppler – For blood flow in arteries

• Obstetric Doppler – To monitor baby’s growth and placenta during pregnancy

• Renal Doppler – For kidneys

• Carotid Doppler – For blood flow to the brain

What to Expect During the Scan?

• You’ll lie comfortably as a gel is applied over the area being tested

• A small device called a probe is gently moved over your skin
