Guidelines for Your Scan Preparation

• Fasting: Some of the patients might be asked to avoid food or drink for a few hours before the test.

• Clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing for easy access to the abdomen.

Previous Reports: Bring any earlier imaging or medical reports to help your radiologist compare and provide a precise analysis.

The Scan Process

A renal Doppler ultrasound is a non-invasive and painless procedure. Here’s what to expect:

• You will be instructed to lie down comfortably, following which a clear, water-based gel will be applied to your abdomen.
• A radiologist will carry out the scan by sliding a handheld ultrasound probe over your abdomen to capture detailed pictures of both the kidneys and the blood vessels.
• The Doppler function further measures blood flow velocity and direction, creating color-coded maps to bring attention to any abnormalities.

Images are analyzed in real time and later reviewed by an expert radiologist who prepares a comprehensive report.
