Question: I have obvious varicose veins. Do I need an ultrasound scan?
Veins at the surface can only successfully be treated if the source is identified and controlled. In the majority of cases, source of the visible problem is invisible to the naked eye. Ultrasound helps us identify the extent of disease in your leg deep to the surface. Only then is enduring outcome possible. Once the extent of disease is identified in your leg, a detailed treatment plan will be developed that will manage the entirety of YOUR specific venous problem.
