Thyroid Doppler Ultrasound Test
A Doppler ultrasound is a painless diagnostic that uses circulating red blood cells to reflect high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound) to assess the blood flow via your blood arteries. Medintu offers Thyroid Doppler Ultrasound Test at Labs that are nearest to you at discounted prices and high-end equipment. Normal ultrasounds employ sound waves to create images, but they are unable to depict blood flow.
Many conditions can be identified with a Doppler ultrasonography, including:
- Blood clots
- Valves in your leg veins that aren’t working properly, which can lead to blood or other fluids pooling in your legs (venous insufficiency)
- Congenital heart disease and heart valve issues
- An obstructed artery (arterial occlusion)
- Diminished blood flow to your legs (peripheral artery disease)
- Swollen arteries (aneurysms)
- Narrowing of a blood vessel, such in your neck (carotid artery stenosis)

What is the purpose of doppler ultrasound?
Doppler ultrasonography examinations are used to aid medical professionals in determining whether you have a problem that is obstructing or lowering blood flow. It might also be applied to aid in the diagnosis of some heart conditions. The test is typically performed to:
• Examine cardiac function. It frequently takes place in conjunction with an electrocardiogram, a test that gauges the electrical activity of the heart.
• Check for blood flow obstructions. Deep vein thrombosis, or DVT, is a disorder that results from blocked blood flow in the legs (DVT).
• Examine the heart’s structural flaws and any blood vessel damage.
• Keep an eye out for blood vessel narrowing. Your arteries in your arms and legs may be narrowed if you have peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Carotid artery stenosis is a condition marked by narrowing of the neck’s arteries.
• After surgery, keep an eye on blood flow.
• Verify that a pregnant lady and her unborn child both have proper blood flow.
What exactly takes place during a Doppler ultrasound?
A Doppler ultrasound typically consists of the following steps:
• You will lie down on a table, exposing the area of your body being tested.
• A medical professional will apply a special gel to the affected area of skin.
• The provider will sweep the area with a wand-like device known as a transducer.
• The device transmits sound waves to your body.
• The movement of blood cells causes the pitch of sound waves to change. During the procedure, you may hear swishing or pulse-like sounds.
• The waves are recorded and displayed on a monitor as images or graphs.
• After the test, the provider will remove the gel from your body.
• The test takes between 30 and 60 minutes to complete.
