Advanced equipment and radiologists who see you in person mean faster, more accurate exams — same-day scan, same-day reading and same-day explanation of your results.
Checking for Vascular Disease
3 Non-Invasive Imaging Tests
(MRI / CT / Ultrasound)
Prime Radiology uses the latest 128-channel, 443-slice CT, MRI and high-resolution ultrasound to evaluate the health of your blood vessels precisely. Vascular disease often causes few or only vague symptoms in its early stages, so accurate testing and early diagnosis are essential. High-resolution vascular imaging evaluates blood flow and the condition of the vessel walls, allowing early diagnosis of conditions such as arteriosclerosis, blood clots and varicose veins.
Precise diagnosis and fast results —
trusted vascular imaging for your health and peace of mind.
Types of Vascular Imaging
With MRI, CT and vascular ultrasound, Prime Radiology can diagnose
narrowed blood vessels, aneurysms, peripheral vascular disease and more.
Vessel MRI
Brain Vessel MRI (= Brain MRA)
- Takes detailed images of the blood vessels in the brain.
- Can be performed without contrast and is effective for assessing narrowing, aneurysms and blood clots.
- Useful for diagnosing narrowing of the brain vessels and brain aneurysms.
Recommended for
- Suspected brain
aneurysm or
family history - Narrowing or
blockage of
brain vessels - Vascular causes
of chronic headache
or dizziness - When CT contrast
can’t be used due
to kidney problems
Vessel CT
Vascular CT (Computed Tomography)
- After a contrast injection, CT images the blood vessels to precisely evaluate their structure and check for narrowing, aneurysms and blood clots.
- Effective for diagnosing brain vessel disease (narrowing of the brain or carotid arteries, brain aneurysms), abdominal aortic aneurysm, coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease.
- High-resolution 3D images show the fine structure of the vessels.
Recommended for
- Brain aneurysm
or stroke risk
(brain CTA) - Suspected
abdominal aortic
aneurysm
(abdominal CTA) - Chest pain or
breathlessness:
coronary disease
(cardiac CT) - Suspected
peripheral artery
disease (leg CTA)
Vascular Ultrasound
Vascular Ultrasound
- A non-invasive test that evaluates blood flow in major vessels such as the carotid arteries and the veins of the legs.
- Detects conditions such as arteriosclerosis, blood clots, narrowed vessels and varicose veins early.
- Measures blood flow in real time to check the degree of narrowing and the speed of blood flow.
Recommended for
- Stroke risk
assessment and
blood flow tests - Suspected
varicose veins or
deep vein
thrombosis (DVT) - Leg numbness
or pain when
walking - Abnormal pulse
or checking
a lump
Vascular Imaging
Comparison & Key Features
Blood vessels carry oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. With risk factors such as
high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity or a family history,
vessels can narrow or become blocked and disrupt blood flow.
