Treatment Description

An outpatient appointment typically takes approximately 20-45 minutes. Based on the examination, we can also create a so-called venous map, which allows for precise planning of further treatment. 

Successful treatment of venous diseases is based on correct diagnosis.

Color Doppler ultrasound allows for:

  • early disease detection,
  • individualized therapy planning,
  • greater safety of interventions,
  • for better long-term treatment outcomes. 

Since not all forms of venous insufficiency are the same, precise analysis of the venous system is key to choosing the optimal approach:

  • conservative treatment,
  • sclerotherapy,
  • laser treatment,
  • after surgery.

Preparation for examination

  • Please come for your examination in comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being examined.
  • Special preparation is usually not necessary unless your doctor gives you different instructions.
  • It is recommended that you do not use oily creams or lotions on your skin before the examination.
  • Bring any medical documentation or previous test results with you.
See how the procedure is done at Juventina Clinic.

Review process

  • Discussion about your problems, symptoms, and medical history.
  • The doctor applies gel to the skin and examines blood flow in the veins or arteries with an ultrasound probe.
  • Color Doppler technology displays the direction and speed of blood flow on the screen, as well as any blockages or abnormalities.
  • After the examination, the doctor explains the results and, if necessary, advises on further actions or treatment.

The patient stands or lies down for the examination, as body position affects vein function and allows for a more accurate assessment of blood flow. 

During the examination, the doctor:

  • with an ultrasound probe examines veins,
  • assess blood flow,
  • check the function of the venous valves,
  • may indicate potential reflux,
  • Map precisely the course of the affected veins.
