Areas of specialization

Vascular ultrasound:

1. Venous ultrasound:
– Study of chronic venous insufficiency (varicose veins and “spider veins”)
– Ultrasound study to rule out deep and/or superficial venous thrombosis

2. Ultrasound of supra-aortic trunks (carotid, vertebral and subclavian) for cardiovascular risk analysis (associated with heart attacks, strokes and amputations).

Comprehensive treatment of varicose veins and “spider veins” with Sclerotherapy (injections of sclerosing material), Laser and/or Surgery.
