Diagnostic Services

A precise vascular diagnosis is important for determining the most appropriate treatment. At UMC Hospitals, Nashik, vascular specialists use clinical examination along with targeted investigations based on the patient's symptoms and suspected vascular condition.

• Clinical Vascular Assessment
  The evaluation includes medical history, assessment of circulation, examination of pulses, skin condition, swelling, wounds, temperature changes, and other signs of vascular disease.
• Doppler and Duplex Ultrasound
  Non-invasive vascular ultrasound helps evaluate blood flow through arteries and veins. It is commonly used for conditions such as varicose veins, DVT, and peripheral arterial disease.
• CT Angiography
  CT angiography provides detailed images of blood vessels and may be recommended for evaluating complex arterial blockages, aneurysms, and vascular anatomy before an intervention.
• MR Angiography
  In selected cases, magnetic resonance angiography may be used to visualize blood vessels without conventional catheter-based angiography.
• Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
  ABI compares blood pressure in the ankle and arm to help assess blood flow to the lower limbs and identify peripheral arterial disease.
• Conventional Angiography
  Catheter-based angiography may be recommended when detailed vascular imaging is required or when an endovascular procedure is being planned.

Endovascular and Minimally Invasive Vascular Care

Modern vascular treatment increasingly includes minimally invasive endovascular procedures. Depending on the condition, vascular specialists may use catheter-based techniques to access affected blood vessels and treat blockages, narrowing, or aneurysms.

Angioplasty, stenting, thrombectomy, and other endovascular techniques may be considered for appropriately selected patients. These procedures can provide an alternative to conventional open surgery in suitable cases and may support shorter recovery periods.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What does a vascular surgeon treat?
  A vascular surgeon diagnoses and treats diseases affecting blood vessels, particularly arteries and veins outside the heart and brain. Common conditions include varicose veins, peripheral artery disease, DVT, aneurysms, carotid artery disease, arterial blockages, diabetic vascular complications, and vascular access problems.
• When should I see a vascular surgeon for varicose veins?
  You should consider a vascular evaluation if varicose veins are associated with persistent pain, swelling, heaviness, skin changes, itching, recurrent ulcers, bleeding, or symptoms that interfere with daily activities. Early assessment can help determine whether treatment is necessary.
• Are varicose veins treated without surgery?
  Yes. Depending on the condition, treatment may include compression therapy, lifestyle modifications, sclerotherapy, endovenous laser therapy, radiofrequency ablation, or other minimally invasive procedures. Traditional surgery may be considered in selected cases.
• How can I reduce my risk of vascular disease?
  Maintaining a healthy weight, staying physically active, controlling blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol, avoiding tobacco, following prescribed medications, and maintaining a balanced diet can help reduce vascular and cardiovascular risk. Patients with existing vascular disease may require additional specialist-guided management.
