Vascular Care & Treatment

Our vascular care and treatment options include both diagnostic and surgical services. The vascular lab, which is located on the ground floor of Sturdy Memorial Hospital, offers a number of noninvasive services that assist physicians in diagnosing blood flow complications such as stenosis, blood clots, and blockages. It's equipped with the latest technology, such as specialized transducers that produce detailed color-flow images. The color images help physicians detect turbulent blood-flow problems without performing an invasive procedure.
