Renal Doppler is a non-invasive imaging technique used to assess blood flow in the renal (kidney) arteries. It utilizes Doppler ultrasound technology to measure the speed, direction, and pattern of blood flow through the renal arteries, which supply blood to the kidneys. Renal Doppler is commonly used to diagnose conditions such as renal artery stenosis (narrowing), renal artery thrombosis, and renal artery aneurysms, which can affect kidney function and blood pressure regulation. This imaging modality provides valuable information for healthcare providers to evaluate renal vascular health, diagnose vascular disorders, and guide treatment decisions.
