A complete physical examination.
Ultrasounds allow your physician to locate and identify the signs of venous compression. This test is routinely performed in the office.
A CT scan can provide pictures of slices of your arteries and veins, allowing for a more accurate diagnosis.
Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) treatment is a catheter-based system that allows a specialist to take images of the diseased vessels from inside the artery. This is the most advanced imaging of its kind and provides the most detailed and accurate information, which allows us to develop the best course of action.
