Vascular Investigation Studies

Complex ultrasound investigations looking at the arteries and veins.

Arteriovenous Fistula / AVF Mapping

An arteriovenous fistula is a surgically created connection between an artery and a vein, usually in a patient's arm. It is commonly used for haemodialysis, filtering waste and fluid from the blood, a treatment method for individuals with kidney failure.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Thoracic outlet syndrome is a group of conditions where nerves, arteries, or veins in the space between your collarbone and first rib are compressed, leading to pain, numbness, tingling and weakness in the shoulder, arm, and hand.
