Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) happens when a blood clot forms in the deep veins, often in the legs

What is DVT?

It can lead to serious complications like pulmonary embolism if not treated early

Early diagnosis through ultrasound helps prevent life-threatening complications by detecting hidden clots before they cause severe damage

Why is early detection crucial?

Ultrasound is the gold standard for diagnosing DVT, providing real-time imaging of veins to spot clots and assess blood flow

How does ultrasound help?

Swelling, redness or warmth in one leg

Symptoms to watch for:

Pain or tenderness, especially while standing or walking

Sudden shortness of breath (warning sign of PE)
