Duplex & Doppler
Duplex ultrasound combines structural imaging and Doppler assessment of blood flow in selected arteries and veins
Service availability and suitability are confirmed during coordination
Before your appointment
Duplex ultrasound combines structural imaging and Doppler assessment of blood flow in selected arteries and veins
Suitability is assessed case by case. A medical facility may be a safer option for some examinations or patients
Preparation and coordination
Share the requested region, side and clinical indication so the right vascular protocol can be coordinated
We will confirm whether the examination is suitable for a home visit before booking
The reporting and delivery process will be explained during coordination
Lower-limb arterial and venous duplex at home
For a lower-limb duplex enquiry, we confirm whether the clinician has requested a venous study, an arterial study or both, and whether one leg (right or left) or both legs need assessment.
Feasibility, timing and the quote depend on the exact examination. Urgent symptoms suggesting thrombosis or acute loss of blood supply need prompt medical assessment, not a routine home booking.
A common question
Is duplex the same as a routine ultrasound?
Duplex combines anatomical ultrasound with blood-flow assessment. The time needed depends on the vessels examined
Useful answers before arranging a visit
How is venous duplex different from arterial duplex?
Venous duplex evaluates the veins and venous blood flow; arterial duplex evaluates arteries and arterial blood flow. The exact vessels, side and whether one or both limbs are examined depend on the clinical request.
Can every vascular duplex study be performed at home?
Not necessarily. The requested protocol, patient position and equipment suitability must be checked. Specialist vascular or transplant studies require individual confirmation, and urgent symptoms must not be delayed for a routine home appointment.
Where can I arrange home duplex and Doppler?
Home duplex and Doppler visits can be coordinated across all areas of Cairo and Giza. Before the visit, the team checks examination suitability, home setup and scheduling for the individual patient.
SCANOVA brings home medical imaging, diagnostic examinations and procedures such as paracentesis and thoracentesis to patients across Cairo and Giza, with portable equipment suited to home visits and qualified medical professionals. Our coordination team confirms suitability and timing before each visit.
