• Cervical vascular ultrasound: It is used for the early detection of vascular diseases, especially if there is a history of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or a family history of such conditions.
• Ultrasound examination of limb vessels: It helps identify circulatory disorders, such as pain or swelling in the limbs.
• Soft tissue ultrasound: It is used to detect subcutaneous lesions, such as cysts or tumors.
