Vascular Medicine
Vascular Medicine is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases related to the vascular system, which includes arteries, veins, and lymphatic vessels. This branch of medicine addresses conditions such as peripheral artery disease, deep vein thrombosis, and varicose veins, among others.
Vascular medicine specialists, known as vascular physicians, use various diagnostic tools, including ultrasound and angiography, to assess blood flow and identify blockages or abnormalities. Treatment options may include lifestyle changes, medications, and minimally invasive procedures to improve vascular health and prevent complications.
