Diagnostic Tools and Treatment Options in our Vein Care Clinic in Atlanta, GA
Physical Exam:
To diagnose varicose veins and spider veins, a physical exam by a doctor is generally all that is required.
Ultrasound:
If the doctor wants to get an idea of how the blood is flowing through your veins, he may order an ultrasound. The ultrasound is non-invasive and gives your doctor a picture of your veins and the direction of blood flow and how your valves are working.
Compression Stockings:
One of the least invasive treatments is to use compression stockings to help support the veins.
Sclerotherapy:
Still considered non-invasive, the doctor injects a sealing agent into the veins.
Ambulatory Phlebectomy:
This treatment involves the doctor removing the damaged vein from the leg.
Endovenous Vein Treatment:
The doctor seals the damaged vein from the inside with heat, laser, or glue.
