Ultrasound technology allows us to create a vein “map” to understand which veins are functioning normally and which veins are not. From this, we can formulate a treatment plan specific to each individual leg. This ultrasound should be performed in the standing position to truly evaluate vein flow against gravity.
At Albuquerque Vein & Laser Institute, we perform this ultrasound in-office at the time of our initial consultation, and we take pride in taking our time to do it the right way. A well-performed ultrasound is critical to appropriate vein treatment, and is one aspect that sets our Albuquerque vein clinic apart from others. We will work with your insurance provider to determine your coverage for this procedure. Deanna, our Registered Vascular Specialist, is one of New Mexico’s experts in performing venous ultrasound.
