The Surgical Specialists of Charlotte Vascular Laboratory is one of the region’s premier IAC Accredited Vascular Laboratories. We provide non-invasive evaluation of vascular disease (both venous and arterial) using ultrasound and segmental arterial pressure recordings. Both of these modalities are patient friendly and do not require use of needles, dye or x-ray.
We utilize the most technologically advanced ultrasound systems for vascular duplex imaging. In addition, our lab has the Parks Flo Lab Series 2100, which provides segmental pressures and doppler-derived waveforms. This computerized technology is capable of diagnosing arterial disease without an arteriogram.
Vascular Studies may be scheduled in our Mercy, Huntersville, Matthews, Pineville and University offices by calling 704-333-0741.
