Digital Colour Doppler Ultrasound
Along with other forms of techniques, ALNOOR also provides the Colour Doppler, an imaging technique that generates colour-coded maps of blood velocity in different tissues and vessels.
The technique is based on the physical law known as the Doppler Effect, which describes the relationship between the moving object and the ultrasonic waves that differ according to the direction of movement of those objects. Based on these parameters, we can count the volumes and velocities of blood flow through the examined blood vessels and organs.
Colour Doppler include:
- Carotid Doppler
It is done to rule out carotid artery stenosis, a common cause of emboli leading to stroke.
- Lower limb Doppler
It is done for assessment of acute and chronic Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
- Renal Doppler
It is done for the assessment of renal artery stenosis in hypertensive patients.
- Liver Doppler
It is done for diagnosis of portal vein thrombosis and assessment of portal hypertension
- Assessment and follow-up of Transplanted organs
What’s the cost of a Doppler scan in Lahore?

Frequently Asked Question Related Digital Colour Doppler Ultrasound
What is the price for 4D ultrasound in Pakistan?
4D ultrasounds typically incur higher costs than conventional 2D ultrasounds. In Pakistan, the cost of a 4D ultrasound ranges from PKR 5,000 to PKR 10,000.
What is the expense associated with a colour Doppler test?
A colour Doppler test resembles a standard Doppler ultrasonography but employs colour coding to depict blood flow. The price of a colour Doppler test in Lahore often varies between PKR 2,000 and PKR 5,000.
What is the cost of a Doppler ultrasound at Al Noor Diagnostic Centre?
The precise cost of a Doppler ultrasound at Al Noor Diagnostic Centre may fluctuate. For accurate pricing, contact them directly.
What is the purpose of colour Doppler?
Colour Doppler is used to evaluate blood flow within blood essels. It is beneficial for identifying diseases such as varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, and vascular anomalies.
Are Doppler tests and sonography identical?
A Doppler test is a form of sonography. Sonography employs sound waves to generate images of interior organs and structures, whereas Doppler technology assesses blood flow within such tissues.
