Vascular Scanning

Vascular Scanning at Exeter Medical

What are vascular scans?

Vascular scanning is a range of tests that create pictures to assess blood vessels including arteries and veins and their blood flow.

These scans diagnose vascular conditions such as atherosclerosis, blood clots, aneurysms, and other vascular disorders. The results of vascular scans guide treatment decisions and monitor the effectiveness of treatments.

Vascular scans produce images to help assess your body’s vascular system including your arteries and veins.

They detect and evaluate the narrowing of arteries and veins and any blockages within them, bulges in weakened blood vessel walls, and blood clots. They produce images of these vessels and their blood flow. Arteries or veins in your neck, arm, leg, or abdomen are most commonly examined.

Spider (Thread) Veins

Spider veins, also known as thread veins, are small, twisted blood vessels that appear in a spiderweb pattern through your skin often on your legs or face. They are similar to varicose veins but smaller and caused in the same way when a one-way valve in your vein, that help your blood flow back to your heart, stops working properly and your vein swells as blood flows the wrong way.
