The Vascular Laboratory performs over 9,000 procedures yearly to study the functions of arteries and veins. These tests are considered noninvasive which means: there are NO needle injections, NO dyes or x-rays are used and NO side effects or pain are associated with these tests. Trained technologists with specialized training perform these tests which must be ordered by a physician. Physicians credentialed in Vascular Laboratory interpretation then read and interpret the examinations. Results are forwarded to the patient's physician. |
