At Access Vascular, we provide the most comprehensive vascular ultrasound examinations, with integrating between innovation technique and most up-to-date knowledge in vascular medicine.
Our ultrasound result is comparable with other invasive imaging modalities, including CTA and IVUS
We offer non-invasive vascular tests in all aspects of vascular conditions, including but not limited to:
– Test perform: Carotid and Vertebral arterial Duplex ultrasound examination
– Target: To exam the main arteries the neck which supply blood to the brain, face and brain.
– Preparation: patient is required to expose their neck with minimise jewellery.
Ultrasound exam will be performed with patient lying comfortable on their back.
Aorta and Iliac arterial Duplex ultrasound examination,
Renal arterial Duplex ultrasound examination
Visceral arterial Duplex ultrasound examination
– Test perform: leg arterial Duplex ultrasound examination, with conjunction to Aorto-iliac scan if required.
– Target: To exam the main arteries the leg which supply blood to the leg and foot
– Preparation: patient is required to expose their full leg from groin to ankle.
Ultrasound exam will be performed with patient lying comfortable on their back.
Please take your compression stocking off 30 minutes before the Ultrasound scan. If you have bandage on, please discuss with our team re dressing option.
To provide information about arterial flow, including a map and the function of the venous system, to provide diagnostic information and to accommodate management plan.
– Target: To exam the main veins in the leg which carry blood from the foot back to the heart.
– Tests perform: Venous insufficiency Duplex ultrasound examination for leg.
– Preparation: patient is required to expose their neck with minimise jewellery.
Ultrasound exam will be performed with patient in the upright position.
Please take your compression stocking off 30 minutes before the Ultrasound scan. If you have bandage on, please discuss with our team re dressing option.
– Target: To exam the main veins the abdomen which carry blood from the legs and internal organs.
– Tests perform:
IVC- Iliac venous Duplex ultrasound examination
Gonadal venous Duplex ultrasound examination
Renal and visceral venous Duplex ultrasound examination
Target: To exam the main veins the neck which carry blood from the brain, face and neck.
– Test perform: Carotid and Vertebral arterial Duplex ultrasound examination
– Preparation: patient is required to expose their neck with minimise jewellery.
Ultrasound exam will be performed with patient lying comfortable on their back.
Target: to obtain arterial waveforms and blood pressure ratio between ankles and arms, using Doppler ultrasound technique.
Tests perform: Resting ABI
Resting and exercise ABI
Preparation: patient is required to expose their upper arms and lower legs. Blood pressures are to be taken in arms and ankles.
Please advise our team if there is any restriction on taking blood pressure in your arm/leg.
If exercise test is ordered by your Doctor, your will perform a 5-6 minutes walking exercise, or equivalent. Arterial waveforms and blood pressures will be taken again straight after the exercise.
Target: to obtain arterial waveforms and blood pressures ratio between toes (or fingers) and arms
Tests perform: PPG on toes or fingers
Preparation: patient is required to expose their upper arms and foot/hand.
Target: To assess the suitable vessel for creating an arteriovenous fistula, or check the already created AVF.
Tests perform: the areas for AVF will be exposed for the scan.
Preparation: please contact our team if you have any concern.
Please contact our room for special instructions.
