• Ultrasonography is another real time imaging modality. Cross sectional images of the scanned portion are visualized through various planes to identify, localize and diagnose the complaint.
  
  Doppler examinations to image the blood vessels and profile the hemodynamics within can be carried out on our ultrasound machine. This is invaluable in the management of varicose veins, diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis, and arterial blocks.

The technique thus provides a non-invasive clinical imaging of the human body which enables a variety of diseases to be diagnosed without exposing a patient to x-rays.
  
  Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) is an MRI technique to visualize blood filled structures, including arteries, veins and heart chambers.
