VASCULAR DISEASES

There are several diseases which can compromise many organs of our body,  the function of arteries, blood and lymphatic vessels.  Recognizing and treating them, as soon as possible, can make a difference.

There are not many methods to study vessels. The Doppler ultrasound is the main one, but more important are doctors and their experience in using it.
