Factor V Laeiden

Factor V Leiden is a genetic test that measures the presence of a specific mutation in the Factor V gene, which increases the risk of developing abnormal blood clots (thrombosis). This test is commonly performed to evaluate individuals with a personal or family history of blood clots, helping to assess their risk and guide treatment decisions.

Hematology

D-Dimer (Quantitative)

Measures fibrin degradation products to help rule out deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), or DIC.

Special Investigations

venogram

A venogram is an imaging test that uses X-rays to visualize the veins in the body, typically the legs, to identify blockages, thrombosis, or other vascular issues. It is performed by injecting a contrast dye into the veins to enhance the images, helping doctors diagnose conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Ultrasound

Abdomen Doppler USS

The Abdomen Doppler Ultrasound (USS) is a non-invasive imaging test that uses sound waves to visualize blood flow in the abdominal organs and vessels. It is primarily conducted to assess conditions such as blood clots, abnormalities in organ blood supply, and to evaluate the functionality of abdominal blood vessels, aiding in the diagnosis of various vascular diseases.

Ultrasound

color doppler one limb USS

Color Doppler ultrasound of one limb is a non-invasive imaging test that uses sound waves to visualize blood flow in the arteries and veins of a limb. It is primarily used to assess conditions such as blood clots, narrowed blood vessels, or other circulatory issues.

CT Scan

CT lower Extremity Angio with Contrast(peripheral

A CT lower extremity angiogram with contrast is a diagnostic test that uses advanced imaging technology to visualize blood vessels in the legs. This procedure is performed to detect conditions such as peripheral artery disease, blood clots, or vascular blockages, helping healthcare providers assess circulation and plan appropriate treatments.

Interventional Radiology

Bone Aspiration with Imaging Guidance

Bone aspiration with imaging guidance is a diagnostic procedure used to collect bone marrow or tissue samples from a specific bone, guided by imaging techniques such as X-ray or ultrasound. This test helps in diagnosing various conditions, including blood disorders, infections, and cancers affecting the bone marrow.
