At Virginia Vein & Wellness Center, we use ultrasound technology to screen for venous disease and other potential health problems. Ultrasound helps us see what’s happening within your veins and determine whether something needs to be done to improve your circulation. We use these screenings to determine risk and proper treatment methods for whatever health conditions you may be experiencing.
Ultrasound for Disease Prevention & Vein Health
Venous Reflux Screening
Our venous reflux ultrasound screening assesses the condition of lower extremity veins for damage and circulation issues. Venous reflux is the reversal of blood flow and the pooling of blood in the legs that occurs as a result of valve damage, and contributes to the development of varicose veins and other venous disease. This screening is commonly used to see which vein treatments or procedures are needed to help the patient. Also, venous reflux screenings are covered by insurance and require an order from a physician.
