Vascular Center

State of the Heart Cardiology�s expertise extends to the vascular system with a nationally accredited vascular lab.

We are proud to provide the following non-invasive vascular testing through our accredited lab:

• Carotid Duplex - for evaluation of patients with new carotid bruits or symptoms of cerebrovascular disease. Patients with documented carotid disease can be placed on an annual surveillance program
• Carotid Artery Intimal Medial Thickness (CIMT) - for stroke risk evaluation
• Aortoiliac Duplex - for evaluation of patients with claudication or suspected aortic or iliac artery aneurysms. Patients with documented aneurysms can be placed on annual surveillance protocols as indicated
• Lower Extremity Duplex - for evaluation of patients with claudication and for routine annual surveillance of patients with lower extremity bypass grafts
• Upper Extremity Duplex - for examination of suspected subclavian or brachial artery stenosis
• Venous Duplex - for evaluation of DVT
• Exercise Ankle: Brachial Index - to evaluate for the presence of a vascular component of exertional leg pain
