Colour Doppler Scan
Have you ever wondered how doctors can tell if a baby is healthy while it’s still in the womb? There are a lot of different tests that doctors can perform, but one of the most common is called a colour Doppler test or scan. Colour doppler imaging uses sound waves to create a picture of the baby and can help doctors to check for things like the baby’s heartbeat, umbilical cord, and placenta.
The scans we offer include the following:
Obstetric colour Doppler scan
Renal artery doppler, aorta
Carotid and vertebral doppler
Upper limb arterial/venous flow, right/left
Echocardiography 2D/Doppler
Arterial doppler of the whole body
Venous Doppler of the entire body
Pelvis colour Doppler scan
Portal vein
Evaluation for deep vein thrombosis: right leg/left leg/both
Lower limb
IUI
Carotid artery Doppler
Upper limb and lower limb arterial and venous doppler, carotid doppler study
During a soft tissue scan, a transducer (a small hand-held device) will be placed on your skin. The transducer will give off sound waves that bounce off the organs and tissues inside your body. The waves are then turned into images on a monitor so the doctor can take a closer look.
In most cases, the test will be performed by a radiologist (a doctor who specialises in diagnosing and treating diseases using medical imaging tests). However, you may also see an ultrasound technologist (a medical professional who is specially trained to perform diagnostic imaging tests).
A soft tissue scan is a noninvasive way to get pictures of the inside of your body. This means that there is no need for any needles or injections. In most cases, the test is also quick and easy to do. Another benefit of this test is that it does not use ionising radiation (such as X-rays). This means that it does not carry any risks of causing cancer.
A soft tissue scan is a quick and easy way to get pictures of the inside of your body. If you are pregnant or think you may have another condition that requires this type of diagnostic imaging, talk to your doctor about whether or not a soft tissue scan is right for you.
