The mission of Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center’s Non-Invasive Vascular Laboratory is to detect vascular disease in its early stages. The Vascular Lab offers state-of-the-art equipment and painless, non-invasive procedures to evaluate arterial, cerebral and venous diseases. Duplex scanning utilizes ultrasound to identify vascular lesions of the upper and lower extremities, abdominal aortic aneurysms and peripheral arterial disease. Modern, diagnostic procedures are used to evaluate for stroke risk, for obstructive arterial and venous diseases and for cardiac vascular insufficiency. Experienced, friendly technologists explain the procedures, perform the tests and answer all questions during these essentially risk-free diagnostic tests. Kingsbrook is the area’s first Intersocietal Commission Accredited Vascular Lab (ICAVL) assuring an unsurpassed level of excellence.
