What It Detects
What this scan can assess
- Arterial disease causing reduced blood supply (claudication)
- Venous reflux and chronic venous insufficiency
- Whether leg pain is arterial, venous or mixed in origin
- Narrowing or blockages in the leg arteries
- Faulty valves and reflux in the leg veins
- A complete vascular picture in one assessment
Leg-pain assessment — what each component grades
| Component | What it grades | Standard threshold |
|---|---|---|
| Arterial (ABPI) | Peripheral arterial disease | ABPI ≤0.90 indicates PAD |
| Venous reflux | Chronic venous insufficiency | Reflux >0.5 s (superficial) / >1.0 s (deep) |
| DVT assessment | Deep vein thrombosis | Non-compressible vein indicates thrombus |
The leg-pain package combines arterial, venous and DVT assessment so both common causes of leg pain (arterial disease and venous disease) are evaluated in one visit, using the standard thresholds shown. Interpreted in full clinical context by our specialist vascular scientists.
What we measure — and what it means
| Measurement | What we assess | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| ABPI | Ankle-brachial pressure index. | Screens for peripheral arterial disease. |
| Venous reflux time | Reverse-flow duration in leg veins. | Diagnoses chronic venous insufficiency. |
| Vein compressibility | Whether deep veins compress fully. | Excludes deep vein thrombosis. |
| Doppler waveforms | Arterial flow patterns. | Localises arterial disease. |

When to Book
When should you book?
Pain on Walking
Cramping on walking that eases with rest (possible arterial).
Aching & Swelling
Heaviness, aching and swelling (possible venous).
Mixed Symptoms
A combination of symptoms suggesting both systems.
Comprehensive Check
You want a thorough one-visit vascular assessment of the legs.
Risk Factors
Diabetes, smoking or known vascular disease.
If Something Is Found
What happens if your scan is abnormal?
A clear onward pathway matters. Your result is explained in plain English, with a written report suitable for your GP, specialist or insurer.
Arterial disease found
Graded by ABPI and waveforms, with GP or vascular referral as appropriate.
Venous insufficiency found
Mapped and graded, supporting referral for varicose-vein treatment.
Suspected DVT
A non-compressible vein suggests DVT — this is acted on urgently the same day.
Acute limb symptoms
Sudden cold, pale, pulseless limb, or hot swollen painful calf, needs emergency assessment (999).
The Evidence
Why this assessment matters, the evidence
This scan is supported by recognised clinical guidance and standard vascular practice.
Leg pain has both arterial and venous causes; combined duplex assessment allows accurate diagnosis in a single visit.
NICE CG147 (PAD) and CG168 (varicose veins).Same-day duplex assessment is valuable where DVT is part of the differential, as prompt diagnosis affects management.
Standard vascular practice.Clinical figures shown reflect standard, widely-used thresholds and are interpreted in full clinical context. For personal medical advice, consult your clinician.
