DIAGNOSING VEIN DISEASES
The diagnostic spectrum of the specialist medical practice comprises all non-invasive procedures for examining venous and lymphatic illnesses, which are mainly performed in modern vascular medicine.

In any case, prior to any varicose vein treatment, it is necessary to clarify the extent the vein illness has currently reached. This allows an individual therapy plan to be created for each case.
