Every consultation at the Texas Vein Clinic
uses state of the art ultrasound evaluation of your legs to assess
the veins that cause you trouble. Ultrasound is THE ONLY way
a physician can ascertain whether you have problems with the
deeper veins in your legs.
This process is called vein
mapping. It helps in determining the best treatment plan for
YOUR SPECIFIC situation.
If an ultrasound mapping is not done
of your veins by a physician treating your veins, there is no
way to know whether you are receiving the correct treatment.
What
is the purpose of the Mapping?
The mapping provides a detailed
view of your vein system which cannot be obtained by just looking
at the veins on the surface of your skin. Much of the problems
with the veins you see on your skin are the result of deeper
problems. The ultrasound examination allows Texas Vein Clinic
physicians to understand the flow of blood in your veins and
whether it is abnormal.
The Texas Vein Clinic doctors are specially
trained in this type of examination. |
